Good morning, coworker!
Just sending this email to create a paper trail of evidence documenting your ineptitude in completing the task that you were supposed to do last week.
Thanks!
I said I could start that task once I was provided with the requirements, and that it would take me three days. I have not received the list of requirements.
Re: Rhynoplaz
Good morning,
This email is just to inform you that the task you assigned me a week ago was completed and sent to you via email three days prior. Please see attached email with date of previous submission to you.
Respectfully,
Devolution
Not sure why I was included in this email chain, can you please remove me for further replies.
Regards,
Slazer
For someone who was there for the RIM/BlackBerry Sumit Bhatia email event…
Please remove me from this email
Good morning Slazar,
Please do not reply all to corporate email chains. Please send all off-topic communications through our slack channels.
Thank you.

You have started a 7 day free trial. After which, you will be charged $299.00 a month.
E-Mails are also excellent, if you want to push through something unpopular. Send a long e-mail that will be ignored by most people. Repeat at least once. Then you can reference back to it at a later date.
I always send meeting minutes so I can remember what we talked about and to prove that expectations were clearly communicated or an email to prove that I communicated that there’s a serious issue and forces someone to acknowledge it.
When you find it necessary do this, be sure the conversation is also getting bcc’d to a home email
One my previous cto did this - I was shocked on why he would be doing so. But make sense only afterwards
rule #1, c.y.a.
The best is when you send an email and they reply in a chat or don’t reply all. Makes my spidey sense tingle
Or call instead of answering the mail, especially when its just “Im working on getting it ready”
