Hahaha. I think he knows he’s beaten by now, but that’s a nice cherry on top.

it doesn't mean this: r “As soon as possible” meaning NOT right away, but when you get a round to it.

It means do it now. and quickly, and as quickly as now can be done.

OP here. To clarify “When you get around to it”- I meant you do this thing once you got around to your other priorities.

Clearly, we are not unanimous about asap.


We are unanimous except for you.


+1


This made me laugh. OP, you are wrong. Full stop.

ASAP is a nice way of saying NOW. If time is not of the essence, say “at your convenience” or something similar.

Using your def I will never be able to get back to you because I am never fully caught up with other duties.

Methinks op doesn't know the meaning of ASAP nor unanimous. There are possible comprehension issues.

While I agree with everyone (except OP) about what ASAP means, I disagree that it’s a “nice” way of saying “now.” It’s kind of barky and rude. I usually say “Please prioritize this - we need it in 30 minutes” or something.
