So I'm not completely plugged into American politics.
But this sounds more like someone who's super hippie.
Maybe a bit MAGA as well.
Someone who...
has unconventional ways of wanting to bring up their children obviously this person is also not a feminist so that's probably a bit MAGA but I don't know if they're actually MAGA my boss okay last one for today because this video is getting a little bit long okay last one okay last one for today because this episode is getting a little bit long but if you guys enjoy these kinds of episodes I could do more of them this is actually pretty fun and very juicy and I love reacting to these
live with you guys so let's let's read our last one but let me know in the comments if you want more my boss scheduled a meeting to discuss my tone in emails i've been working remotely for about a year now and overall the job is pretty relaxed everyone communicates mostly through slack and email so it's not like we interact face to face much last week my boss put a meeting on my calendar called communication improvement discussion which already sounded a little ominous
The meeting was at like 9.30 in the morning, so I figured it was probably about some project update or something I missed.
But when the meeting started, he pulled up a few emails I had sent recently and said some people felt my tone was coming across a little blunt.
The emails he showed were literally things like, hi, can you send the updated file when you get the chance?
And just checking if there's an update on this.
That was it.
At first, I honestly thought he was joking.
Those seemed like completely normal work emails to me.
I wasn't being sarcastic or annoyed or anything.
I was just asking for updates.
Then he suggested I try adding more exclamation points or emojis so the tone feels friendlier.
So now I'm sitting there writing emails like, hi!
Exclamation mark, exclamation mark.
Just checking on this when you have a moment.
Smiley face emoji.
