Reason #37

X called for you and you weren't answering reception when they tried reaching you so X naturally asked to speak to me.  When I buzzed you, you told me to tell X you were on a conference call and that you'd try to call him in about five minutes.  So I relayed that to X and got his number, even though he said, "She has it."  (Because I find when I do not ask for numbers, people ask, "Why didn't you get his number?")

You replied, and the beginning of your email said: 

hope you were nice (sure you were!)

 

Are you kidding me?  If you're so "sure" I was nice, why do you need to clarify that you hope I was?  And if I wasn't nice, do you think I'd have this job?
