Lesson Learned - Dont scan emails



Last week I was emailing Laura. I have this terrible habit of scanning through emails fast and not actually paying attention to question that are asked about me. This just so happens to be one of Laura’s pet peeves. Laura emailed me one morning and asked how was and my weekend and what did I do. I replied with it was good, how are you. If you didn’t see the key missing element, it’s the "what did you do" part that I missed. Anyways, I do this all the time and it drives her crazy. Laura then emailed me and told me it was a shit email, little did I know, she was DEAD serious. I emailed her back saying ha ha, how are you. Obliviously, still, not answering the question, Then Little to my knowledge, Laura looked at her computer and said to herself, "HOW RUDE, im boycotting Steph and her emailing… SO there." (This is just what I THINK Laura thought, Not True words from her mouth.) So Laura decided to teach me a lesson. Haha. Laura did not email me back the rest of the day and last two more days with no email. Two days later, I called Laura too see how she was…
Laura – "So did you notice anything this week?"
Stephanie – "No, you must have been busy, you didn’t email me."
Laura – "Did you notice I was teaching you a lesson?"
Stephanie – "No… what lesson?"
Laura – "I stopped emailing you because you never answer the questions that I ask, so I was teaching you a lesson and not emailing you…"
Stephanie – "KILLS HERSELF LAUGHING"
Laura – "LAUGHS "
Its good to have honest friends, Plus I need to learn lessons once in a while.
