This feels like how we should be living
  • I'm not opposed to sending an email back either, but that's not the method of communication we are used to at my place of work. Those emails are for interactions with outside entities most of the time. And email filters can work but just glancing at what I have every couple of days is enough to know I don't need to worry about what's going on in emails. They're backup to other systems that are in place that will alert is to critical issues.

    Again though, we don't really have people miss slack messages. I'm suspecting this might be like the way some people say they use signal/Messenger/WhatsApp/SMS. People/companies just communicate differently and we just have different experiences within our lives. I posted my initial reply with that intent but I probably didn't make that clear.

  • I'm not them but you seem to have different company cultures than the person you're responding to and due to that you guys aren't seeing eye to eye. I'm in the same boat as the other person.

    My email is flooded with automated messages for workflows and company PR. Very rarely do I get something that needs my attention so email is like regular mail to me. We have other ways to ensure work (from outside my team) is completed and a priority to my team and email had been found to be lacking.

    This means my company uses other tools to ensure requests are made aware to people without using email and we're all good with it. I'm not saying that to say we have the best or right solution, just that our company found what's best for us and maybe the other person isn't articulating the same has happened for them.

  • This feels like how we should be living
  • I check my email like I check my mail, once every couple of days - once a week. We have faster modes of communication and (especially in a work setting) if something is time sensitive you can give me a call or text/IM.

  • Ohio Supreme Court rules boneless chicken wings can have bones
  • I would argue that unlike nuggets they are cuts off the chicken breast and you can still see "threads" of meat as opposed to nuggets which are ground into a paste. I know it's a home recipe but this is what I usually experience at restaurants https://www.persnicketyplates.com/boneless-wings/

  • Cursed with two legs
  • I guess I'm confused what you mean. From ancient Greek mythology "The mythological accounts describe the Minotaur as having the body of a man and the head and tail of a bull."

    Minus the trail the legs should essentially be human, no? But if we go into DNA then neither have any human DNA right? Since they're their own species and should have their own DNA.

  • It's painful to not be able to see everything at once.
  • I had that and had to explain to the department why 6 monitors essentially (3 physical monitors with 2 virtual desktops on each) was not the same as 6 other monitors (2 physical monitors with 3 virtual desktops on each).

  • What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned?
  • Absolutely. I use my tablet almost exclusively as a media device but I do feel it could be so much more. It is nice though to use it while my phone is charging overnight and not wasting battery on the phone while traveling.

  • Why 1,000 Homicides in St. Louis Remain Unsolved
  • To add onto this, St. Louis is similar to Baltimore where the city and the county have split. The city isn’t like almost every other city in America. The city numbers don’t have the more suburban calmness and reduced crime to easily compare across other cities. The north of the city is definitely dangerous, but as I understand it every city has a more run down dangerous area.
