* Notes

- But *talking about work isn't real work*. It takes up time, energy, and
  resources, and feels like work, but it doesn't get the important stuff done.
- Meetings – virtual or otherwise – should be viewed skeptically from the
  outset, as risks to productivity rather than opportunities to make progress.
- But real-time, synchronous communication – be it a Zoom meeting, a Slack
  message, or a shoulder tap – *always interrupts*, and there is a productivity
  cost to it
- [[https://www.fastcompany.com/944128/worker-interrupted-cost-task-switchingit][Studies show]] take on average 23 min and 15 sec to refocus after an
  interruption
- Good communication is about saying the right thing at the right time. For our
  team, that means written and asynchronous by default. Very little changed
  about our workflows when we switched to remote work a few weeks ago.
- › I would add that one thing the article does not dig into is the usefulness
  of the occasional meeting in remote or distributed work settings. Async is
  great, but sometimes it’s nice to see people’s faces.
