minus-squareredisdead@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·2 months agoSomeone, in a mail including my boss and other managers, complained that my replies were too short To which I replied ‘They are as long as they need to be.’ So she went ‘A little warmth would help communication greatly’ or some other bullshit.
