There was a good portion of my day today where I simply refused to be available... to anyone that didn't really want my attention, that is. I didn't open outlook and I didn't check any of the mail I have on webservers. And to tell you the truth, I kinda liked it.
You see, if you have my phone number, but you e-mail me anyway... I sometimes get the feeling that what you had to say wasn't all that damn important. Sometimes I'm right, the emails don't have much important to say. Sometimes I make that judgement call myself and just slap the label on there specifically because you chose to email the contents instead of call. Most of the time when that happens, people have their story all lined up already...
- I was too busy to talk so I just sent of a quick email instead...
- I wanted to talk to you but I didn't want to interrupt what you were doing...
- I thought maybe it would be better if we didn't talk so I just emailed it off instead...
Do you see a trend here? My thoughts on those stories...If it were that damn important to you, you wouldn't have been too busy, you would have risked interrupting, or you would have put your balls on the line and tried to talk about it. But apparently whatever it is you had to say just wasn't...
So if its not that damn important to you, I'm not going feel bad for being disconnected for a few hours of sanity.
Those of you without my number, I apologize...
