I would assume they're not but that's because I notice that depending on who makes what shoe depends on what size I have. I also see this in pants and shorts for men as well. I just assume nothing is actually standardized due to QA never really catching things.

You mean the Utah hockey club that came from the land of the Coyotes in Arizona (previously Phoenix)?

It wasn't software though. It was an immobilizer chip, which is hardware, that they didn't put in the car. They cheaped out on a part, sure, but it wasn't faulty nor was it software.

I feel like being remote for 4 years is no longer about the pandemic. It's become a new standard and by showing financial harm by coming into the office I feel you might have a better case. Example being car insurance. My insurance went down as my car is now a "personal vehicle" vs a "commuter car"

I'm not opposed to sending an email back either, but that's not the method of communication we are used to at my place of work. Those emails are for interactions with outside entities most of the time. And email filters can work but just glancing at what I have every couple of days is enough to know I don't need to worry about what's going on in emails. They're backup to other systems that are in place that will alert is to critical issues.

Again though, we don't really have people miss slack messages. I'm suspecting this might be like the way some people say they use signal/Messenger/WhatsApp/SMS. People/companies just communicate differently and we just have different experiences within our lives. I posted my initial reply with that intent but I probably didn't make that clear.

I'm not them but you seem to have different company cultures than the person you're responding to and due to that you guys aren't seeing eye to eye. I'm in the same boat as the other person.

My email is flooded with automated messages for workflows and company PR. Very rarely do I get something that needs my attention so email is like regular mail to me. We have other ways to ensure work (from outside my team) is completed and a priority to my team and email had been found to be lacking.

This means my company uses other tools to ensure requests are made aware to people without using email and we're all good with it. I'm not saying that to say we have the best or right solution, just that our company found what's best for us and maybe the other person isn't articulating the same has happened for them.

I check my email like I check my mail, once every couple of days - once a week. We have faster modes of communication and (especially in a work setting) if something is time sensitive you can give me a call or text/IM.

I'm just giving anecdotal evidence, just like you gave 🤷‍♂️ I'm not promoting one way of communicating vs another.

Crazy, most people use SMS with Messenger as the go to for big groups for me (in USA). No one I know uses WhatsApp

You see it in sports all the time. "I'm dedicated to finding a good contract to stay in this city" then they sign a new contract with a new team.

I'm not trying to start shit, but wouldn't all people who were 90's kids start the council at the same time due to how time flows?

But this specifically is calling out getting the title of millennial, why would you expect gen X to be a part of the meme?
