My boss shouts at me in Capitals when he emails me
-
Hi all, I have a cosmetic problem which is that whenever I get an email from my boss, it's always in capitals. I personally was brought up to believe (or at least I grew to learn) that such a thing is akin to standing 1 meter away from someone and spraying spittle all over them whilst shouting as if they were deaf. What do I do? This guy pays my wages, and I have tried subtly numerous times over the years to correct the behaviour, but to no avail. We can't blame lousy screens, as he also has a thing about getting the latest and greatest gadetry in, so we generally have multi-monitor setups to rival your average sci-fi hollywood movie type of thing. I've tried to explain many times that CapitalisingEveryOtherWord works well in source code, but generally get back a comment which says THERE MIGHT BE A PROBLEM IN CAPITALISINGEVERYOTHERWORD . Dunno about you, but my mind wants to go on holiday when I see that. Is there anything I can do, or is it a lost cause. (Btw, he should wear glasses, but generally doesn't) Aha. We have found the end of the world. Um, actually no, it's New Zealand on a sunday...
