lmao i'm so sick of people calling my place of work with their airpods and getting mad because they can't hear me. as if it's my fault they're using bean sized pieces of plastic to conduct a conversation and i'm fighting over what sounds like a thousand oncoming cars and the very winds of winter because GOD FORBID josh in fidi waits until he's indoors to make a 3 minute phone call.

what about Partially, for another reason. I know i'm either O- or A- because my dad is O+ and my mom A- and i and my sisters had our rhesus factors typed at birth because if it was positive, our mom needed an injection to prevent her antibodies getting to know the rhesus protein things and attacking the next positive baby. to my understanding.

*if you know/have confirmed from multiple sources, pick the first one you experienced

I just found the earliest email I ever sent from my email address, and it’s the funniest goddamn thing I can possibly imagine a fourth grader sending her teacher:

(Context - my fourth grade teacher was on maternity leave, and the class had conferenced at recess regarding the poor state of the classroom goldfish’s tank. We decided to inform our (24yo, new mother) former teacher of the dire situation, and I was selected as the duly appointed representative for this solemn communication.)

one of the most infuriating things about becoming an adult is when you realize that it actually is 10x easier to solve problems by making a phone call vs literally any other communication method

i hope this email kills us both instantly

I think this is just a trend everywhere but I've been very frustrated this week by how much admin work is being outsourced to me as the patient/customer.

My orthodontist tells me I can make an appointment with the surgeon. I call the surgeon. They tell me I need a new referral. I call the orthodontist. They do a referral. I call the surgeon. Referral didn't come through. They tell me about their special unique system we have to use. I call the ortho again and walk them through the referral. I call the surgeon. They say the referral was missing some details so they have to do it again. I call the ortho.

The insurance company calls me about repair shops. I give them the name of the repair shop which I already gave them yesterday. They say they're not in their system but I can use them, but I have to call the repair shop to ask them to contact the insurance company. I call the repair shop and they say the insurance company is supposed to email them.

I feel like at a certain point these constant fetch quests become unreasonable?? Is it too much to expect these groups to communicate with each other instead of making me run back and forth between them???

"unsubscribe" is not enough. i need a button that says "if you email me one more time i will track you down and kill you with a hammer."

not to sound like a boomer, but I need some people to learn how to write emails in a semi-professional (at the very least) format so you're not cold emailing a business/potential employer/any other stranger about formal matters in the exact same way you'd DM a close friend on instagram

the formality/language can loosen up in the email chain once you've established a rapport and you match the other person if they're being less formal, but please don't have the very first email you send a stranger be written in all lowercase ultra-casual sms slang with no greeting or signature and a billion emojis
