The world is strange and people in it are strange.

How do you feel about:

Hey Larla — attached is the follow up report you requested. Please let me know if you have any questions!

And then nothing else because I have an automatic signature line and this person knows who I am because we work together every day.

I’m not psyched about “Hey” but if I know you it would be fine (I’m the one who wrote that old post lol). I can deal with hi and hello and hey now without making a new thread on DCUM, but I welcome not having them at all.

The rest is great, though. I use exclamations like that all the time to seem agreeable and like I like my work lol.

I like that! When really inside I might be seething over the content of the communication and hate my coworkers and my job with an all consuming passion.
