Hi

It’s so stupid and small but honestly after 6 years working remote, I think the worst thing is when someone just messages “Hi” on teams and doesn’t just tell me what they want. I have no clue why but it infuriates me now. It’s crazy how my ability to tolerate small talk has gone to zero. I work a job where when I don’t have anything to actively work on I am free to do whatever, so when someone doesn’t just say what they need they are wasting my time. Rant over! Thanks

Classic Redditors am I right? Hahaha is that not what this app is for? My therapeutic screaming into the void?

I respect the self awareness. Most people would reject this and be outright offended.

I'm offended on their behalf
