I said “reduce total workload.” What are some thing that accomplish •that•?
“Do we really have the problem we think we have?”
“There’s a simpler way.”
“Work from home!”
“Hmm, I’m going to think about my reader, and edit for clarity and emotional impact before sending this email.”
“We’re willing to pay for experience / expertise.”
“Things are going well. No need for you to stick around!”
“Maybe we don’t need to do this thing anymore. We can just choose not to have this problem.”
