Different rant (since everybody's in the mood): Would it actually kill people to take a glance over their email or Teams/Webex message before they click send?? I shouldn't have to spend 5 times as much time as you spent composing the message determining what you *meant* to say out of the clues of what you actually *did* say!

Given the audience, I know I'm not the only person on earth who proofreads. But seriously, AM I THE LAST PERSON ON EARTH WHO PROOFREADS???

I hate healthcare in this country

So much. I just got a bill today from Quest because DH's PCP sent out his test for flu and related stuff and my co-pay was $458. !!! We could have told them he had the flu.

I am big fan of "your request is unclear. Please clarify."

The shame and mortification that occur when not proofreading generally keep me compliant, but my eldest son is the first to let me know when I don't. I always do with work communication! (here I may post and run, leading to horror later)

I’ve had to reassure several engineers that I don’t read their Slack messages with an editor’s eye. I’m just happy they remember to tell me things!

This looks like a very Buffista thing.

We recently had a team member relocate from India to the US and spent almost all of one team meeting explaining US healthcare to him. It was mostly apologizing.

The Spotify AI DJ keeps trying to have me listen to country music for no reason I can think of. I don't think there's anything wrong with country music, but I've never played any country music on Spotify so I don't what data modeling it's using.

The Everyone Listen to Beyonce model?

Sounds like a good theory.
