That, of course, makes no sense. Google has zero motive not to cold call PayPal employees or whoever if PayPal has not similarly agreed to hold off on Google's workers. So shouldn't this mean another round of subpoenas? Why has the DoJ limited its scope? Also: I suppose if Michael fucking Dell can't send an email without sounding like an idiot I shouldn't be surprised when my coworkers and professors can't either. Actually not a single one of these TECH INDUSTRY GIANTS shows any regard for grammar, spelling or formatting in any of their emails. Why...? It takes more work not to use good grammar at some point, right?
EDIT: The second half of that sentence in particular is going to absolutely fuck them. EDIT2^: shame Pando doesn't go into the economic arguments against this when talking about the relative pathos between wage-fixing a laborer and wage-suppressing someone who's already kinda wealthy. Either way, net efficiency is tanked. That's big.
^two edit topics tend to get badgesSome of the companies Pando contacted for this article insisted, off the record, that they had not agreed to appear on Google or Apple’s lists, and that there were no reciprocal non-solicitation agreements. Indeed, that same line of defense was used by many of the defendants in the current case.

I think once you get to a certain level you are too busy to deal with grammar. Management at my company is the absolute worst.
I think they think that's true, but they're wrong. Grammar is second nature. Switching back and forth from bad to good -- because no matter who you are there are times when you have to use good grammar -- is more trouble than simply internalizing it to begin with.
Sometimes when I have 10000 other things on my mind and I'm responding quickly on my phone it's easier to simply say "yeah sounds good - make sure to include this in press release next week too thanks taylor" than typing it out properly. But, I only do this when talking with my colleagues, not managers. If I was running a company, I have no managers and therefore would be able to do it all the time.
