I go turbo on emails. Oh, you want to send me a vague one line question and cc three people? Well, prepare for the full CYA Experience, complete with charts, graphs, and paragraph after paragraph of pre-written documentation explaining why my A is C'd.

I hope this email finds you even half as well prepared for this conversation as I am, your move.

Sincerely, FAFO

I have been accused of being "thorough" in my emails. That's a kinder way to say "verbose". Which is a kinder way to say "wordy". And a less erudite way to say "loquacious".

I like loquacious. It is a perfectly cromulent word. But no one has accused me of being "loquacious". Je m'accuse.

That was the bane of my existence back in my customer service days.
