[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally annoying. I wouldn't respond to that specific email, but I do think if you're getting 14 text messages in a couple of hours, you ought to bring up proper communication. I think it's fair to say something like, "Gladys, I'm feeling a lot of stress from incoming emails, texts, and phone calls. Would it be possible to stay in touch once a week unless there is something urgent that you need? I want to be responsive when you really need it but I simply can't keep up with all of this email and text traffic. It's not just you - I'm simply overwhelmed from all sources."[/quote] Thanks for this! I work in a secure facility (which she knows) and can only check my phone/email after work or days like today when I'm off site. So the build-up of messages is quite frustrating. I will pick an appropriate time to remind her that I can't always respond right away and if she needs an immediate answer to direct her inquiry to DH :)[/quote]
