Don’t you just hate it when you start an e-mail during the day on something time-sensitive and important, only to be distracted by other important events, and then discover at the end of the day that you never actually got it sent and it’s still sitting there, waiting for you to click on the Send button, and now you understand why nobody responded to you about it?<\/p>\n
Don’t you just hate it when you write up a draft e-mail and send it out for comments before it will be forwarded to the intended recipient, and nobody comments on it and therefore your brain, which has already checked it off as “done,” assumes that it is, in fact, done, and doesn’t remind you that you haven’t sent it until you make an offhand comment to the intended recipient that you never heard back from them and they inform you that they’d never heard back from you?<\/p>\n
