I recently realized that someone that I work with doesn’t read every sentence in even the shortest of emails. I couldn’t understand how anyone could be so stupid until it dawned on me that just because he was asking questions; didn’t mean that he read the previous message(s). Some things really are in TL;DR. category; but, when the sentences are short and the letters are big, I thought is safe to assume some level of reading and comprehension. Now, at least when dealing with this particular person, I know better.
