my boss has a habit of responding late to email, but always midway through the chain, panicking about whether it has been addressed.

I am making the right decision in leaving. the first few times I pointed it out. now I just answer the question. she's only been with the company a couple months, so she's still getting on top of a lot of stuff, but still, read the *whole* email chain before responding.

Does your company use Outlook/Exchange? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 20, 19:46 5
- gmail! it's already organised into chains for her! -- nm - mafic Apr 20, 19:49 4
  - We use google too, and a lot of my colleagues turned off the "chain" aspect. I wouldn't be able to function. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 20:09 1
    - I've seen her setup, and she hasn't. I wonder if she's just so used to outlook that she doesn't scroll down after reading one message - mafic Apr 20, 20:48
  - Gah! The mind boggles. (Linked video has some our flag means death spoils) -- (edited) - Beryllium Apr 20, 20:05 [youtube] 1
    - That scene broke me. It’s amazing what they did with so little. -- nm - Mop Apr 20, 21:17
