Nothing like a spontaneous calendar invite to set your anxiety spiralling into overdrive.

@girlgerms Those are the worst dot com. I've had to start declining them and asking that they be resent with context for that exact reason.

@girlgerms Auto-decline FTW
Show thread👩‍💻 Jess "GirlGerms" Dodson  Nov 23, 2022

@gvnshtn I wish.

What I'd *actually* love is a way to auto-decline outside my working hours!

@girlgerms @gvnshtn At a previous company, I used to do that that would auto decline or if I had an existing item. That was until I got in trouble because I was never accepting meetings from SLT so I had to turn that off. :(

@JefTek @gvnshtn 🤣 yeah, I don't mind double ups so I can pick between. What I don't like are constant meeting invites at 2am.

No, I'm not fucking up my sleep for a crappy meeting.

@girlgerms Especially if it is a 1:1...

@crash0ver1d3 not 1:1 luckily. That's later in the afternoon...

@spurgelaurels oh yeah, had that before. Nothing chills the blood quite as much...

@girlgerms oh yes these can be really bad! I once got one, only a headline that could mean anything. Expected the worst. Braced myself
Then it was only a very minor thing that had nothing to do with me in particular.
Best wishes, and please don't think about it too much!
