today i got an e-mail from someone-that-cannot-be-named in huge (about 2cm high) bold letters, “please stop sending me notices“. or something to that effect.

talking face to face with a person is different when communicating with the same person via e-mail. to express emotion in an e-mail one has to be a little creative with the use of letters and punctuation marks. a normal conversation would mean using the regular form of a sentence with a capitalized first letter, lower-case letters and a period at the end or mostly lowercase letters. a sentence using all capitalized letters means you’re shouting that sentence. then there’s the emoticons.

so the sentence above is roughly equivalent to chewing my head off. the thing is i don’t even know the person. i don’t think i would care to.

i currently manage about five lists and this is the first time that someone requested for something to be done in this manner. most of the time i get polite requests which i’m happy to oblige if i can.

it just goes to show you that getting an expensive education and/or having loads of money doesn’t really equate to having good manners.
