Corporate Communication Annoyances

Posted on by luken7

What is it with corporate folks that give them the urge to send you an email to notify you that they just left you a voicemail, or leave you a voicemail notifying you that they sent you an email? And now, a new one, you get an Instant Message notifying you that the person is ABOUT to send you an email …..

Hmm, I’m pondering a new approach. When people ask me why I haven’t responded to their communicay, I’ll just reply, “Did you follow that up with a voicemail or email?”

  1. You are not alone. I cannot say I have the exact same problem, but similar. I generally get an IM first, if i do not respond quickly enough, then I get phone call, to which I usually do not pick up, so they leave voicemail, and then five minutes later an email arrives in my inbox.
    Having previously worked where you now work – I would suggest it is part of the accepted corporate culture. Cross your finger and pray that this new acquisition will overwrite things with a new and improved corporate culture. 😉
