Few people can focus enough to read.

I work in a technical field. In the past few years I’ve learned that interacting by email usually requires one-line sentences or bullet points, with any questions being numbered. No fluff, no secondary thoughts or possibilities. Keep it as minimal as possible.

It still fails to elicit a coherent response about half the time, but it’s the best I’ve found so far.

It didn’t use to be like this. But what’s to blame; screen addiction, microplastics, covid, increased stress, … ?

I’d be glad to:

Pack his bags tonight preflight…

Really? Only 13%?

Maybe it’s a lagging indicator? Maybe sales in China picked up? Maybe the numbers have been finessed?

This is great news!!
