When organizations mess up, why is their first response to the critique to say “Why didn’t you come to us first?” when they really mean “Why did you make this public so we actually have to do something?”

I get really frustrated with the response because it doesn’t come across as a company actually interested in improving, but just throwing accusations back and trying to beg off the responsibility of actually holding themselves accountable.

I feel the same way; having a mix of high- and low-intensity tasks in a workday stresses me out less because I can use the easier tasks as a warmup or cooldown for the larger tasks.

Seconding this; Cruelty Squad is hitting that Deus Ex/Quake itch for me right now
