99% of these "Now!" requests aren't anywhere near urgent... yet they feel it's urgent enough to stop me on my company-mandated lunch hour. From experience there appears to be a significant portion of people who do not believe things are done unless they see them being done.
Another group, containing mostly the same people, do not believe anyone who says they will do something, regardless of past history, therefore it must be done "now!".
Another group, again much the same people, think everything they do or require to be done is important and "now!". Occasionally that is because it actually is. But usually these people are just very bad at organising themselves and cannot cope with the extra variable of you.
I realize the "don't trust it unless I see it" mindset... I work with some people that will forget they promised something / forget they accepted a calendar invite / not read my email+text / etc. In which case seeing someone in person and such isn't that far fetched.
I don't agree with hovering, but I can accept it.
But if you see someone with a messy sandwich in their mouth and force them to stop and do something "so quickly" that they can't even go to the restroom to wash their hands... that's just being a jerk.
Come back in 30-60 minutes and ask me THEN.
