People who do not return emails are incredibly rude.
If you walked up to a person, spoke to them, and they didn't acknowledge you, would you not consider that rude?

If you called someone, and the person on the other end didn't bother saying anything through the handset, would you not consider that rude?

If you wrote someone a regular letter, requesting correspondence, and the person never bothers to write you back, would not consider that rude?

I think the same etiquette applies to email!!! :argh:

5. Nah, someone would have replied eventually
Better to be the first knucklehead to miss an opportunity than the last, I always say.


Well, I sometimes say it.


Occasionally, anyway.


In fact, I've never said it at all before just now.


And I guess I didn't actually say it, for that matter.



What was the question?

13. Most of us get too damn much email that we never asked for in the first place
copied to some distribution list that we never asked to be part of.

I respond to very little email that is of the general announcement variety. I only speak if I have something to say that is relevant and I feel strongly about.
