People saying "I need to see you in person"

If there's one thing that always puts my stomach in knots, it's when people email you and say "I want to talk to you, but need to do it in person." You KNOW that that almost always means something not good...and it happened today in work. After being unable to contact the scientist that sent me that email this morning I kept dwelling on the request, thinking "what in the world can this be about?" By 3pm I found out. Turned out that it was a revision of something that the scientist was worried was too extreme, but it was no problem at all. So, all the agonizing and stomach churning for nothing (just like Tom told me). SO - NEXT TIME YOU SAY TO SOMEONE "I need to see you in person," give them an idea about what it's about. That's a really unfair thing to do.
