I hate it when people have a very specific request for you, but because they are embarrased at how lazy the request makes them seem, they waste 20 minutes of your life trying to pre-justify. As if they’d be asking for my help, if I was stupid enough to buy the excuse. I knew you wanted to laze your way out of the task the moment you came to me. Stop wasting both our times, just ask for the help up front and get out of my hair so I can get it done.
