Email is Evil

One of the greatest inventions of modern times but it evil.Makes people nasty.We are all used to sending a mail and getting a reply within 5 min give or take some.But what happens when someone sends a mail and god forbid you dont reply in 5 min.

You get a flippant whatever,nevermind,where you,you to busy to reply etc etc.....

What most people forget is that even though email is generally super quick there are times when it aint.Mail server's go down or are overloaded.Telephone exchanges go down.There are power failures.And the list can go on.

Has the convience and speed of our electronic worlds made us rude and cheeky?

So dont forget the next time someone does not reply in two two's they not ignoring you, they not being nasty or mean, they dont not care and they arent evil.The mail is just running a bit slow.So dont freak out, definitly dont fire off a salvo of harsh emails cause once it sent it gone and then theys no getting it back. So take a deep breath,maybe go have a cup of tea or a smoke and then come back and check for you reply.Most likely it will be there.

This is a publice announcement to save some from hurt and others from embarresment of harsh emails.



P.S: This applies to other so called quick forms of communication.IM,Mxit,GTalk,MSNLive and the rest of em.
