Or when it chimes, "that call is for you". You can't instill it in the culture and training, and then be surprised by it later on. The only time I would get "defensive" about it is if you just reached over and, without even acknowledging my presence or comfort level and just changed it. I really don't care about it, but I do want to be included in the process, and a CA just changing it on a whim implies I am not part of the discussion. Otherwise, just say the normal, "Can you toss a log on the fire?" and I am sure 99.9% of us would gladly do just that.
