I realize part of my job is to find mistakes, and then have them corrected. And I realize people aren't perfect, myself included. But I try to do my job well, and I try to fix my mistakes quickly. Others....sometimes....not so much. In that spirit.....
When I say "this is a friendly reminder" it is usually a follow-up to something I have already asked you to do. The "friendly reminder" part though, is worded nicely because I'm a professional and shit.
But in case you didn’t know, a street translation of "friendly reminder" actually means.....
· What the fuck is your problem and why haven't you handled this yet?
· Do you think you're special and can get away with not doing your job?
· If I could remind you with an electric shock to the groin, I would.
· I hate you right now.
· You just stole another 30 seconds of my life, now give it back.
· If I have to send another reminder, it’s not going to be friendly.
· There are many people in our history who seemed friendly, but were actually lunatic murderers. Remember that.
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
