I can't be the only one whose blood pressure spikes when they get a "got a second to talk" text?

Mirrored by my wife saying "We need to talk" = end of my marriage. One of my managers used that phrase to start chats and I panicked every time

Seriously, say what the chat is about, or at the very least add "not a bad thing."

Seriously!! I swear people who do this are all A-typical brained. Like as soon as I get that my brain goes to the building is on fire and everyone is dead.

"Yeah, give me a second, I'll give you call."

Ugh. I expressly teach my student workers to ALWAYS include the topics on those.

"Hey, come by my office when you can. Got new lab setup to do" or something. Because that kind of cliffhanger is bullshit!

Every time my older brother texts me, my heart rate spikes.
