Pretty simple question. If I get a reply from an analyst, how quick is considered a "normal" reply time? I want to be courteous and answer promptly, but would replying within 5 minutes make you seem like a fucking weirdo? is ~30 minutes for something that is not time pressing considered proper etiquette?
