selective e-mail


similar to selective hearing, but when a colleague (usually a manager) only chooses to respond to e-mails which suit their needs.

typically, this is because they don’t know -how- to respond, as a result of being incompetent.
they do this regardless of the impact their lack of reply has on their staff/colleagues.

ultimately, they will not be held responsible for their lack of response and the blame will fall on the person who was awaiting their response!
ben: “corey, did you get my e-mail last monday?”
corey: “yeah, mate.”
ben: “….. can you let me know how to move forward on that? i need your guidance.”
corey: “sure! i’ll reply to you when i’m at my desk.”
matt: “corey won’t reply to your e-mail. he has selective e-mail, remember?”
ben: “sh-t.”
