He’s referencing something he already told you rather than having to type it all out again.

Set your email to group by subject line pawpaw and it will all be right there.

Just take the email and turn it into a physical meeting at 6.30am and invite some other important peeps. Mark items as important.


Subject: Your previous email
Required attendees: You

Location: Sonic

Somebody put that into an Outlook Screen grab and post it for later use.

I never look at my emails unless I'm expecting something important, so maybe every 6 months.

Let me help you. “Per my previous email” politely translates to this: Pull your head out of your arse. Usually. There are exceptions.

He won’t make it long. You are paid to get the job done. If repeating myself is necessary to my employer getting the job done quickly and effectively then I’m more than happy.

“He won’t last long because he actually keeps up with his shite and has to remind the office retard something already happened”

What a stupid statement. It’s abundantly clear who doesn’t have any real responsibilities at their job in this thread

Must suck to have a job that makes you read emails all day.

To meet FDA regulations I often have to do this with MD's. It is not ideal, but it is a way to meet some of the arduous regulations when going outside of a written procedure.

Oh, and the kid is telling the OP that they are a lazy frick and not doing what you need to do, and is too stupid to read and understand a simple communication from a coworker.

Sounds like you need to read your emails. Like the company is paying you to do

But yeah let’s shite on the dude who is actually trying to do his job. You’re a shite worker/employee and a large part of what is wrong with companies. Do your damn job and earn your paycheck

Depends how many emails you're getting. For some reason, I get close to 350 per day, literally cannot keep up with it.

I'm talking about the direct ones.

Hey HC86, what's xyz. I reply with Hi Veronica, its this.

The next day, replies to my email. Hi HC86, what's xyz.

Holy shite Veronica I emailed you yesterday in the email right below you replied to and then I proceed to lose my mind...

Half are junk and 60% of the real ones are 3 sentences. If you cant keep up with that over an 8 hour period, you may want to look into remedial reading courses

I'll drop this on a dude at work after multiple versions of this exchange: "Hey Bob, I need you to process an override on account number 1234." His reply: "Sure. What's the account number?"

Running joke around the office is that if you want to keep a secret from Bob, just send it to him via email.

Reply to the email and start with "with all due respect." That pretty much gets you off the hook for anything you say after that.

Or, hear me out, stop being a stupid frick and do the part of your job that requires you to review your emails.

Be competent at your job, and do what’s asked of you.

If you didn’t red the email, you should be called out.
