So preparing to write an email to my sons school about snack times (see my other thread) but just remembered we got a newsletter the first week of school stating:
"If you want to email the class teacher it must be sent between the hours of 8am and 5pm, any emails sent outside of this time will not be responded to"
Now I get there are some parents who are batshit, and think that if they email the teacher at 11pm they will have a response personally at the school gates the following morning, when they drop off their precious little snow flakes.
But isn't sending emails like writing a letter. I will write it at a convienient time, it may have been written at 11pm at night. But I am not batshit and expect it to be read either the next working day or at least the next working day afterwards after it's been delivered.
I work in the private sector and receive/send loads of emails post 5pm, and the same rules apply. Who are these parents who are just being bonkers???
All I can think of is writing my email and timing it in Outlook to be sent within the allotted time. But it just seems pointless.
Sorry probably answered my own AIBU and this is turning into more of a rant! But really!?!? Who are these people...
