Emails I Wish I Could Send

Dear Whine-O,

Let’s do some math.

You said “but it’ll only take 5 minutes”.

But you want to talk to 10 people about 10 different things, for 5 minutes each.

And in order for that to happen, I have to spend AT LEAST 20 minutes for each of your 5 minutes arranging schedules, making sure things dont overlap and generally “coordinating”.

So, 20 minutes to prepare, plus the 5 minutes you need equals 25 minutes of my time. Times 10. That is 4 hours of my life. I was up until 1:30am doing work last night. I DO NOT have an extra 4 hours for your last minute, whiny request.

Thanks!
Me
