[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they do what you tell them to do, that is your response. An acknowledgement is great but a lot of people don’t like email and don’t want to clog up someone’s inbox with a “got it, thanks!” IME, the younger generation typically does not respond with a “thanks,” they just do the work, and they won’t even tell you that they completed the assignment, but it’s done.

… which is very unprofessional. I don’t expect a response from people included on emails for information only, or to emails that are just informational updates. [b]But I definitely expect a response from people when the email described a task they have to do.[/b] [/quote]

I think it's just a different way of working, especially for younger or offshore cohorts. It can be annoying for sure but the pace of work means people don't always stop to acknowledge or confirm that they did what you asked them to do.

And per the bolded, if you're not my boss and you pull that, you're going to the bottom of the list if you are looking for info or a favor.
