One of the principal engineers I used to know had this as theirs:
“I don’t always respond to emails on time. If you need me to respond immediately, come to my desk Mon-Wed to say hello. If I’m not there, wait until Mon. If you’re in a different country, book a plane ticket the week prior and speak to me on Mon.”
The funny part is that they didn’t have a desk, and were almost always in a different office to where they were supposed to be.
