The Eight Running-Status Types
Six signals decide which type you land on. Here is what each one means.
How the type is chosen
All six signals inside the normal range reads as stable operation. All six over the line reads as all-red. Everything else follows whichever single signal scored highest.
The eight types
Six signals over the line at once. This says less about one person than about an environment worth taking seriously.
Survival tip：This score is worth thinking seriously about
All six signals sit in normal range. This result is uncommon in the sample. Worth writing down.
Survival tip：Write this down so you have a baseline to compare against
Changing direction isn't the problem. The frequency is. Every turn expects the team to follow instantly, and nobody knows when the next one lands.
Survival tip：Turn every verbal ask into writing

Survival tip：For each promise ask: when, from whom, how much
Every expense has become something to re-justify, including the ones already approved.
Survival tip：File the expenses you've been sitting on today
Task arrival times follow a random distribution. Deadlines are uniformly set to 'now'.
Survival tip：For each new task, ask which existing one moves back
Results travel up. Problems settle down. This isn't about one person; it's a very stable mechanism.
Survival tip：Post key conclusions to the channel while everyone remembers
They sincerely believe that being reachable at any hour is efficiency rather than cost.
Survival tip：Non-urgent can wait until morning — but someone has to do it first
