Hello World! Thought I'd let you know one of my Top 10....

Things that piss me off!

Good morning.

Was thinking about something from a recent conversation.

I really don't like it when people ignore me or my requests for info.

Cases in point.

Email requests to a person I have recently worked for requesting scope of work info.

Conversational texts to family members.

Communications to family members requesting counsel / guidance / discussion on important matters.

I would much rather have someone respond and say...

"Listen. I got nothing for you."

"I can't talk now."

"That is something I don't feel comfortable talking about".

That I can handle.

But f'g silence or no response.

That tells me...

"You are not even important enough to me to warrant a response".

And that pisses me off.

And, more importantly, it reduces my respect for those people administering the silent treatment.

It's obviously a model that is promoted and followed by today's tippy toe culture but I think it's stupid and disrespectful.

If you don't want to talk to someone or comment on something or provide help for a request....

JUST SAY THAT!!

I don't necessarily like being shunned at times but I respect the honesty and forthrightness in telling me that You are just not gonna respond.

At least that's a response.

Wish the rest of the World would do that....

Would make my life easier.
