> "Hi, do you have a moment? (ok if not)"

I was always very puzzled by people who do that instead of just saying “Hi, [short description of the project/question]”.

Especially by junior developers who usually struggle with estimating the importance/complexity of the problems they are trying to solve.

I would ask the question that I wanted to ask immediately in the next message (usually after 'whats up'), as I didn't want to have people think about my problem rather than their problem if they were deep into something.

We were also told not to share things about projects with other staff unnecessarily.
