I also like: "F@ck around and find out" as "I don't think that course of action will provide the results that you expect"

I can't begin to tell you how much I HATE corporate jargon and buzzwords.

I sometimes explain why it won't work. Among the approaches: "These are my concerns: "; "If you go with that idea, these are the issues that can come up".

I would alter that to say "will not be acknowledged". Obviously, it may be seen (text messages ect), but that doesn't mean it has to be acknowledged.

Then can you smash them in the face? Whaddya mean no!!!

I greatly appreciate your ability to wait on an answer for this...

I don't work somewhere we have to be professional so I shorten it to "you're gonna have to talk to [Boss] about that"

I ask so many questions because I'm not confidenr making suggestions on how to proceed. Sorry !!

Fantastic response.

"Well, you tried. Live and learn."

Didn't we discuss this as a possible outcome?

I don't feel like this "professional" version was far enough removed from the original. The fact is that if they didn't listen to you the first time, pointing out that you were correct is not going to make them listen the next time. I think the best course of action here is not to say I told you so in any form and just let them continue to suffer the consequence of not listening to you, if the person is your boss. If the person is at your same job level or under your management, then It's an entirely different scenario in which the statement that needs to be translated is "I get input in this and you need to listen when I speak".

As per my previous notions, this resulting event did not go unpredicted by me.

My go to is, "How fun," or just a chuckle.

Oh this is so polite and tactful for I bloody told you this would happen 🤣🤣🤣

Ooooh I like this one!

It takes me a bit longer than most people to write an email: I organize the info and questions, reread it, edit, space it, bold and use colour if that helps. I don't like getting a lot of emails back and forth. I'd rather spend more time composing one and less on sorting a zillion emails.

Or...this is above my pay grade.

As per our previous correspondence...

I like it, but i had to mentally add my own punctuation.

Smack!

Unless you wanna pay me overtime. Then I'm all in 😏

If nothing else, you have a copy of that communication that you tried if an authority tries to pin the blame on you for an uncompleted project.

Oh, smooth!

Also known as the 37th of NEVER!

OW !

Or say Noted. lmao

Sets Zoom meeting anyways!

Please see my prior correspondence, attached below, for the information requested....

The details of your project are unclear. Please provide clarification as to scope, impact and timeline for deliverables.

This is not my area of interest. Let me find someone to help you

No punctuation made this difficult to understand initially

So 'get your thumbs out of your a*s' was too much?

I'm unclear about this. Would you please explain how you came to this conclusion/explain your reasoning?
