When someone pings you on teams or Skype - do you respond immediately or when you have time?

I have one colleague that expects a response immediately. Or if I ping them and they are busy, they get upset. They respond with “hold on” or “can’t right now”. When my message clearly says respond when you get a chance.

Do you feel that after COVID the deadlines and pression is bigger than ever? Deadlines far from reasonable, unnecessary calls - at lunch hour, at night -, people calling you everyhour just because they couldn't wait 15min on Skype/Teams, people calling you or texting you during calls...now every project is super important and if you don't do it the Earth will explode. Jesus, just chill!!!

What is the best way to continue to IM/Skype old coworkers once you leave a firm? I tried Skype and teams but seems the personal accounts don’t hook into business so they don’t get my messages.

Team,

What's your work from home setup for conference calls?

1. I have a Plantronics earpiece but both my clients and team have intermittently complained that I sound too far away. Not every call, but every 5th call. I suspect it might be due to my HP Elitebook. Any alternate setup without routing through my laptop directly?

2. I use Teams for almost all calls. For external calls, I switch to Skype. How do you all do it?
