Rant #2 of the day (because I'm, apparently, very complainy today):
Priority email should be banned. Nothing is so urgent that you can't just TELL me it's urgent--in fact, in the history of me working at this company, nothing has EVER been urgent enough to warrant an !!! Urgent email without someone finding me and telling me what's going on.
I just got a !!! Urgent email from a co-worker. This co-worker sends every other freaking email with the priority !!! Urgent tag. The urgent message this time? Her kid is selling wrapping paper and chocolates for school.
Yes. So very urgent. All her emails are now ... Non-Urgent for me.
