I did my first "Sounds interesting, let's touch base after the holidays" today, and it felt great. Did not specify that I meant Easter. They'll figure it out.

When I moved to Seattle I thought people meant it when they said "we should have lunch." In my defence, I'd been living in Germany for a few years, and if a German say let's have lunch, they mean it. It took a while to realize it's just something Seattilites say to end a conversation.
Omg I did that and I feel guilty. Because I sent it on Friday and haven’t gotten a response. I am still under the “imposter syndrome” vibe of “what if he hates me for saying ‘hey is ok if this months long project waits until January’” even though it HAS to and I did nothing wrong 😭
Same. Mine was, sorry you were delayed getting back to me, even though you expressed repeatedly how urgent this was, but now the window for my capacity has closed and I won’t be able to revisit this until, at least, Q2. Now you run along and enjoy those holidays.

I actually meant Christmas. 2026
Workers catharsis
2: You mean today? That's great!
1: No, I meant "End of December"
(paraphrased from a YouTube comedy bit)
Guess you can step up the cadence on your own, Stephen.
Christmas and Independence Day.
Either way: see you in 6 months.
I plan to steal all of it!
It’s full of positivity,
But still no need to give a shit!
(Until much later)
Thanks!
