Me... No Have Time...

I remember one of my bosses at a Hotel used to say: no have money, no have time, no have, no have... He's Australian, but I think he mimicked the way most Indonesians with basic English are saying when they want to say "don't have" something. Well, it is now me, no have time for responding on friend's discussions these days. I do open all the new discussions I received in my email address, but I deleted discussions that I didn't want to respond and saved the ones I want to respond at a later date. I ended up with around 75 new discussions for about two weeks now. So, my email is getting bulkier and I have to trim it. I started with responding around 20 discussions this morning (the boss is away... of course) when a friend started commenting on my responses. So I stopped responding and do the re-commenting now. So, friends be patient, I'll get there for you but I need time... When there are notification on comments from the owner of a discussion, I would reply right away, cause I read the discussion already, so it's easier. Responding on a new discussion needs reading fully and understanding it. Re-commenting needs only wits... Of course you may think otherwise... I open for any of your thoughts...

Hi Jenny! I can understand that you are a busy bee and you do not have time for each and every discussion and you love to post comments and counter-comments. It is entirely your choice, which discussion you want to respond and post your comments. You could alternatively switch off the notifications in case of those mylotters who are in your friends list, whose discussions you do not feel like responding. This way your inbox won't clutter.

Do not you know that I always give good suggestions ..... You will have to search one by one to get rid of unwanted notifications. You will have to spend some time one day but in future, your inbox will not clutter.

Ah, I always forgot that part when you are giving me a good suggestion... Well, I managed to this date, so I can laze for a while before I have to go through the process of selecting one by one...

Ah, that is a sound suggestion. But There are too many friends in my list now that I don't want to search one by one to switch off the notification. Well, I would do it when I have more time I guess...

hi jenny, I rarely finds time too in starting or responding to discussions here. It happens whenever we have a regular class at school and in our university. Being a working student is not easy and I realize that once you are a teacher, social life becomes inactive. I don't know with other teachers if they feel that too.Well, I think that I have this tight schedule in school because I am teaching 3 levels in the school. There are lots of preparations. Once there will be a contest, our head always assign me on that so I need to give extra time for training of students.Aside from that, there are many paperwork too. I just happen to use mylot whenever I will do some research at work or with my study.

Yeah, I understand some people just cannot respond or comment right away. But I hate it when they did not respond or comment but throwing away discussion after discussion here, that seems rude...

Dear Jennyze, Although you say that you "no have time" it doesn't look like it as you have been very actively responding to my discussion. This makes me wonder what you will be like if you have time. Haha.

I find that a lot of discussions really don't need a response. If you post a discussion, and someone responds to it, you can respond back. The person that responded to your discussion probably doesn't need to respond back to your response, especially if they agreed with your statement. Well, that's how I would take it anyways, as long as the communication is open and they respond to future discussions, then all is well. I mean you definitely would want to respond to future discussions, otherwise you would be being rude and ignoring the people that were there to help you in the beginning. I hope my discussion wasn't to confusing.

I understand your point. Yes, I just take my time responding and commenting back on every discussion I am involving... Never leave it un-commented... (is that an English word)...

hi jennyze as long as you keeo commenting back to the responses we mylotter give you you will earn nicely as you make no money on our responses as we did the typing.you type you earn, we type we earn. I try not to make too many discussions so I have time to respond to all of them.I should save comment as its comment back on responses we get on our discussions and respond to our friends discussions, those are the proper usage of the terms as used by'mylot admins.I get confused when new ones use comment and response interchangeably as they are different here on mylot.responses are what we give to friends discussions, comments we make later on others comments, and comments we make back to responses on our own discussions.

Ah Hatley, don't be confused, just enjoy it. I am not sure I understand myself, but it's in me to comment back in everything written to me. Sometimes I commented on a friend's response without writing my own response to the discussion, especially when my would be response had been written precisely by the others... You are here longer than I am, so I trust you know better...
