group chats
I silenced my phone for one lunch break and returned to find the group had already booked a table, assigned parking spots, decided I was bringing wine, and moved on to debating whether I'd actually show up. By the time I'd scrolled through thirty messages, they'd pivoted to discussing my absence as if I'd already declined, and someone had already paid the restaurant a deposit against my eventual no-show.
