“Thanks for your email! SIKE—the only emails any of us are actually thankful for are ones that tell us our package is arriving today, our food is almost here, or that we landed the gig. If your message does not fit into one of those categories, please consider me out of the office, out of reach, out of my mind, and out of patience. I will be far, far away from my inbox until the phrase “Can I pick your brain?” is outlawed or we find a way to convince clients that their edits always make the piece worse—whichever comes first. If your request is urgent, no it isn’t. If you can’t figure it out without me, yes you can. If you really can’t figure it out without me, aren’t you grateful I’m so talented? Let’s make sure to circle back on that when I get back to you next week/month/decade. Thanks in advance, xoxo. P.S. Your email found me well because it did not find me.”
