Always have to remind myself of this when managers ask me if something could be done. If it's easy, I naturally get a little annoyed that they're even asking. But knowing that is my job, not theirs, and it's good that they ask. There's lots of places where they assume and things go badly.

It’s always nice of them to ask

Remember the phrase "it's not in-pattern". Another one is "it's possible, but expensive"
