Here's something I just don't get. What's the logic in sending an email to someone (okay, me) then running over to their (okay, mine) desk to let them know. A few years ago when I was slightly less of a grown up, I would congradulate them on having sent that email. Today I smile but it still irritates me. I guess the thinking is that by dashing over to my desk, they'll get me to drop everything and attend to the matter that they've emailed me about. Which works, but is really quite rude. Isn't the whole point of email that the reader can attend to your message at their leisure?
