Yesterday a colleague emailed me with a couple of questions about some work they'd done.
The work was, frankly, shit and should have been much better for someone in her post. She'd obviously just knocked something together and then sent it to me to change and edit and make it decent.
I made some comments and pointed her in the direction of some resources that would help her with the rest of it. I didn't do anything extensive but I think what I did do will be really helpful. I spent about 30 minutes on it.
So did I get a thank you email? A thank you cup of tea (this is a bit of a custom in our place)? Any acknowledgement? Did I fuckery buggery.
I'm considering forwarding her the reply I sent yesterday with just the message "you're welcome" at the top. Is this unreasonable? Too aggressive? I am mightily pissed off.
