@robini71 Not an option. I became the designated go-to for some of those groups, have the highest answer ratio in a few of them and not because I chose to, but because I'm near my phone more than I'm not.
My thinking is, if you need help and you come here, it's probably semi-urgent, maybe you have a customer/client and you have a quick turn-around, so I'm there on-hand to answer it nearly always.
Like I said I didn't choose this, it just happened. I don't mind that. What I do mind is all of the above.

@robini71 honestly, when it's mostly quick fixes, they're fine. Not too high traffic either. It's the long 7-minute rambles about nothing, with 25 seconds of problem I have issues with.
I don't care that you had to put your phone down to play with your guide dog for 5 minutes, answer the door for two minutes, discuss the weather outside for 3 and a half when the group is about Komplete Kontrol. That is entirely not the point. Either cancel the message and start again, hit the dedicated pause button (that's like, what it's for) or just... Please learn to be concise. lol
