WHAT?????

okay, i get that people get upset and frustrated and all that good stuff at work, but good god people, have some work etiquette will you?

in the last month or so, here are a sample of responses my coworkers and i have received from various people. Please note that the all caps and number of punctuation marks have been unedited from their original version.

a reply to an email about a presentation going to the board of directors:
"???????????????????"

a reply to a question i had about a complex issue:
"No."

a text sent to a phone of my coworker from one of our bosses about a meeting:
"ARE YOU HERE"

and my favorite of the month - a reply to asking if a department could help with something given a short deadline:
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"


Yeah. All I have to say is WHAT?????
