Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting
That’s not the way it works though.
I need to keep in mind what I am actually supposed to say, and what salesweasel got wrong. Then try to reconcile the two without making das weasel look bad.
If you mention me by name, as opposed to ‘we’, ‘the team’, etc. I will believe my input is required, then I will want to clarify things and put them in the most unambiguous terms.
Really though, I don’t want to be here, if you don’t need me (you talk over me, or diminish what I say) let me get on with things.
Maybe people should just understand that you don’t @ me if you don’t want me to chime in. It’s actually pretty fucking rude.
