Work pet peeve
People who communicate everything through email. I have a few of these in my group of 10, and noticed it's the youngest of the group. So maybe it's a confidence issue, but had this last week.
Comes over to my desk around 1:30
"I don't feel well, is it OK if I head out early?"
"Nah, go ahead...anything we need to pick up before tomorrow morning?"
"No"
"Ok, just please check in with Jim (unit mgr) first...tell him I am fine with it, I just want him to know you aren't just walking out"
"OK...thanks"
2 mins later, email from this kid (he's 24), I am cc'd on-
Jim,
I'm not feeling well, and leaving early. I cleared this all thru Brian. I'll be in tomorrow. Thanks.
[The thru in a work mail is another issue too]
He had to walk past Jim's office to go from my desk back to his!!!!!!
