Coooomics are suppooooosed to be fuuuuunnyyy~
So, I sent an email today. I swear, I have the hardest time sending that first email to someone. I get hyper critical, and that doesn’t go away until I hear back. I have spent hours drafting emails only to never send them (actually I did that today, except I was interrupted at the very end by being sent an email from the person I was constructing an email for). Luckily, first emails are pretty much the only thing that makes me that self conscious. Emails are such a horrible way of communicating, it’s so easy to make a bad impression if you don’t know the person well. Maybe I should apply to jobs with comics instead. :/
…that actually might be a good idea.
Do it, and make a comic about the process and result. And then add a “number of days since last meta comic” counter.
For what its worth, if its to formal you only look professional, and if its to informal you just look companionable. In my experience the only way to really make a bad impression in an email is to txt type or call the person in question an unflattering name. Also i do something very similar with everything. Talking, texting, typing, i plan it all in advance. Its an OCD trait, and everyone’s OCD in their own way.
Woo! Wet T-shirt contest!
Mary your fine :P
Don’t worry, Mary. We’ve all been through that before.
Look on the bright side, at least you don’t procrastinate :)
I can always procrastinate later.
I thought this was funny o.o
