Please Don't Say Just Hello In Chat

There was a point this had become so pervasive I set my Slack status to "I am currently busy working on a prioritized issue. Please open a jira and then speak to management if the case is urgent." then moved slack to another workspace and muted sound. That was my form of time management and it worked well for me personally, most of the time. One can always check with their manager if they are cool with this.
