re: Per my previous email…

If you work somewhere that this person accurately uses that “all the time” I don’t think he’s the problem.

Does anyone else work with an annoying cocksucker who does this all the time?

I had to do this daily because I had a lazy employee who wouldn't read emails or do his job. This was my way of documenting this fact so I had evidence when I took him to HR.

Well maybe you should read your emails because nothing drives me more insane at working than when someone asks me a question when the answer is literally in the email right below.

or... and this is what drives me insane... asks a question in an email/text that is best left for a discussion and then calls 5 times back to back for a one line/word question and answer that could have been done in email/text.

I always interpret it as avoidance of having the discussion, i.e. confrontation.

Man up soy boy.

My admin does all that for me.

If it's important enough, she'll print it out for me to read.

I’m encountering more and more people that lack reading comprehension skills.

My insurance lady entered in my wrong middle initial on my renewal policy. Ok no big deal. Clerical type errors happen. So I sent her an email saying it’s wrong. My middle initial is X. Not Y. Dummy said per your request, I’ve changed it from X to Y.

Wow

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.

I’m not sure I understand you, but it sounds like he’s actually getting his job done, while simultaneously calling out his lazy co-workers, like the OP, for not doing theirs.

If a person decides to email a big group of people implying that I didn’t do something…. You better fricking believe my response will include a copy of the previous email.

I can’t stand frickers that copy in people unnecessarily. Thankfully that’s rare where I work, but it was standard fare at a previous spot.

I hate people who get all butt hurt about language and emails. Stop being a pussy and taking everything personally… and do your job

send a bunch of emails starting at 5:05 PM to document their participation in the project.

Then they have the gall to end the email with "Please advise"

Also love being forwarded an email chain that is 30+ messages deep and I have to search for the relevant information.

I like when I get those, and one of my people pipes up immediately after, points out what was relevant, answers the question for me, and then professionally eviscerates the offending toolbag who has of course copied in their whole upper management as well.

My team is fricking awesome and I love them.
