    Got annoyed today, someone constantly needing things from me, even when they can see I’m working out of my office about to do some other work.

    My stupid first reaction and instinct is to stop what I’m doing and cater for someone else.

    I need to stop myself from doing that and tell them to come back later and I’m busy because they’re too self centred to think and see that someone else is busy and only wants their thing done.

      I’m the same, I go into doing the new thing mode

      the thing is, i get told/implication , is that their thing is both urgent and important , so the feeling of urgency gets me every time.

      anyone with an ounce of self awareness would never want you to drop what you are doing

      I wonder if the habit of people expecting messages returned near instantly has bled into other aspects of life
