  • I’m not opposed to sending an email back either, but that’s not the method of communication we are used to at my place of work. Those emails are for interactions with outside entities most of the time. And email filters can work but just glancing at what I have every couple of days is enough to know I don’t need to worry about what’s going on in emails. They’re backup to other systems that are in place that will alert is to critical issues.

    Again though, we don’t really have people miss slack messages. I’m suspecting this might be like the way some people say they use signal/Messenger/WhatsApp/SMS. People/companies just communicate differently and we just have different experiences within our lives. I posted my initial reply with that intent but I probably didn’t make that clear.


  • I’m not them but you seem to have different company cultures than the person you’re responding to and due to that you guys aren’t seeing eye to eye. I’m in the same boat as the other person.

    My email is flooded with automated messages for workflows and company PR. Very rarely do I get something that needs my attention so email is like regular mail to me. We have other ways to ensure work (from outside my team) is completed and a priority to my team and email had been found to be lacking.

    This means my company uses other tools to ensure requests are made aware to people without using email and we’re all good with it. I’m not saying that to say we have the best or right solution, just that our company found what’s best for us and maybe the other person isn’t articulating the same has happened for them.







  • I guess I’m confused what you mean. From ancient Greek mythology “The mythological accounts describe the Minotaur as having the body of a man and the head and tail of a bull.”

    Minus the trail the legs should essentially be human, no? But if we go into DNA then neither have any human DNA right? Since they’re their own species and should have their own DNA.
