Dude! Where’s my reply?
Ever have those days when you shoot out a dozen e-mails and no one replies back?
In my line of work 90% of everything I do is online and thru e-mail correspondence so when no one replies to me I feel like I’m being ignored. The stone cold shoulder, eyes rolling to the sky, snarly nostril OMG teenage malicious turn-your-back-and-ignore-you kind of feeling creeps all over me.
Was it something I said? Did I word the e-mail in such a way that I came off sounding rude or demanding or sarcastic? Did I over-step my authority? Are they TALKing about me? WHAT DID I DO? Why aren’t they replying to my e-mails??
Don’t know if it’s just me and my fragile self-esteem or if everyone feels this way but I start to panic and sweat alittle and wonder and worry if everything is ok until I get that reply.
Have I been sacked? Is there someone else they are interviewing at this precise moment to take over my job and THAT’S why they aren’t taking the time to answer my e-mail?
WHAT IS IT?
HELLO?
Someones got to reply and I don’t mean the viagra and cialis dudes who send me e-mails from Ubekistan.
Is my e-mail going straight to JUNK?
Dude! Where’s my reply?
