"Adam works at a speed that is faster than most; this can sometimes cause communication problems" - A student

That student was completely correct. I work faster than most people, and that means that I consult fewer times than most, on big projects.

We are besieged, in my office, by a counter-productive culture that has insisted on multiple rounds of consultation:
1: Here's a thing, what do you think?
2: Here's the thing Version 2, now what do you think?
