I loathe receiving multi-paragraph emails that I need a map and highlighter to piece together, like a riddle, the point in 1 sentence or less. My God! I don't care about all the backstory and pointless facts. Longer is not better in business.

In fact, it's so bad at my office, I'm going to start sifting through old emails of certain people, pluck out the 5 words of importance, and keep a running sheet so that I have a reference document nobody else will create, and then I will share it with my team!! It will also be. . . Chronological!!!

History is VERY good for learning how to be a better writer, and leagues better than business in that regard.

That’s nice. Companies do not care.

They are smart enough to NOT teach.

I did Ph.D. In engineering and full-time MBA Finance major. I know people who did Undergrad Business with Finance major/concentration. So I know the value of MBA as well as that of Undergrad Business. I encourage people who are good at math/quant and not interested in engineering to strongly consider Undergrad Business.

This is my nephew. He is extremely good at CS, and was admitted to several (4.45 UW GPA, 1540 SAT), but wanted to do a business undergrad. He is a sophomore at a well respected business school.

What school?

Haha did you see how pissed parents were during virtual learning? They couldn’t control their own kids yet expect teachers to!

I don't think it was about an inability to control their kids. They were pissed off about having to do their jobs and the teachers' jobs.

So who will teach the kids when nobody is willing to do it?
