📋 PERSONA FILE
DOSSIER ENTRY
The Always-Calling Boss cannot wait. They interpret silence as insubordination. They call once, then immediately call again. They message, ping, email, and call in rapid succession. They believe "urgent" means "this very second."
⚙️ CORE BEHAVIORS
- ► Calls 5 times if you don't answer the first call
- ► Sends follow-up messages 30 seconds after the first
- ► Assumes no response = emergency
- ► Expects immediate answers to vague questions
- ► Uses "quick sync" to mean "right now"
- ► Creates urgency from routine tasks
- ► Gets anxious if you're unreachable for 1 hour
- ► Considers Slack reaction emojis as insufficient acknowledgment
