    I wonder how long before people are going: “Don’t stress me out and ruin my day by texting me” or “I would like a warning, by a slight breeze starting to blow, five minutes before receiving an email”.

      Asynchronous methods of communication don’t bother me. It’s only when someone calls me in the middle of my day, expecting me to drop everything and answer.

        When people call me, I have a mini panic attack worrying who is dead.

        Usually it’s just someone calling to remind me that I have a balance due.

        What if they dont want you to answer? What if the idea was to call while you were too busy to do anything?

      When I was a kid, my friends would all come to my house and yell until I came outside… Many Westerners today are simply broken.
