When did people start reverting?
"Thanks - just checking with ********** if this availability suits schedule and will revert asap."
Never been reverted at in my life before two weeks ago, now both me and Ms Maccruiskeen are getting reverted at from all quarters.
Myself and a few friends of mine have been taking the piss out our colleagues about this for years.
"pls implement fix and revert. rgds bob k"
You've clearly never spent much time with lawyers who are so busy reverting they have little time for anything else.

And presumably the same colleagues s**** and wink at each other knowingly whenever they hear an adult say "Myself and....".

Lawyers might be the answer. Ms Maccruiskeen has been corresponding with a former Procurator Fiscal and I'm working with a TV production co on a project that will be sold to every territory with an internet, and subsequently dripping with clearance issues, and the lawyers have clearly contaminated the whole production staff.
Obviously I've not really had to play with the grown ups before.

what really, really annoys me is people
'reaching out to...'

My offshore colleagues regularly finish an email with "Please revert and do the needful". I like starting infinite "please revert and do the needful" loops. No, you revert and do the needful.
Ah MrGrim - the phrase 'Kindly do the needful' - takes me back to my early days of working with offshore team. There must be one person kicking round who is responsible for that.
