me-mail

any email sent from a work email address to anyone in a supervisory capacity long before or long after hours of operation. these emails are usually fluff; noting completion of some project or task that was either -ssigned or not (depending on the level of -ss-kissing required) for the sole purpose of stroking one’s ego and making one’s ‘extra effort’ noticed by supervisors and executives.
1) last night our manager got a me-mail from john. it was sent at 10:00pm and it didn’t have any relevant content. he only sent it to show that he stayed at work so late.

2) john sent a me-mail to the executive office at 4:30am just so they would know how “hard” he works.
a self-centred e-mail, which talks in detail about your weekend, your relationships or how you are feeling etc, the contents of which are likely to be irrelevant to its recipients or are written purely as a form of self-therapy. can be ambigiously friendly or malicious – within a close-knit group me-mails may be written to alleviate feelings of status envy in the sender or to attempt to invoke those feelings in its recipients.
