Someone, 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.
So I added automatic top and bottom text to my emails and for the past idk 10 years or so, all my emails start with ‘Hi,’ and end with ‘Cordially.’
We’ve had wired earbuds for longer than wireless ones, I’ve yet to read a story about one exploding into someone’s ears.
