interesting but seems like overengineered life

I don't know that I would use those words.

I think the words "snowflake" come to mind. 2.5 years in and the kid has a rider for how you should treat him at work.

Meanwhile I know good engineers looking for a job who dont come with a list of demands.

I'm glad to see this. I have thought about making a "collaboration contract" with similar perspective.

some comments:

> If for some reason I realize that during a communication thread, we are jumping on arguments with each other (or blaming each other). I will drop the communication right then and there. This is different from holding my position in a discussion. I will not engage in a conversation that is not productive. I will take a break and come back to it later.

disappearing quickly might not be seen/understood well. I suggest saying something like, "I need to take a few minutes to cool down" before disappearing

> tit-bits

generally the word is tidbits. I don't know if a dialect has morphoned into tit-bits... but if you didn't know, tit is a slang word for breasts in the US.
