I think, for most of us, work email is about creating a paper trail, or colloquially known as CYA, because if **** hits the fan down the road, you can’t “forward” verbal conversations from the past like you could with a piece of old email. [Redact rant about workplace “clients” trying to renege on requirements after-the-fact…] There’s nothing mutually exclusive between email and face-to-fact communication–talk to your coworkers, and follow up with an email recapping the conversation, preventively sniff out any differences in understanding from the verbal dialog earlier.
I’m sure employers would love to get rid of the overhead known as offices, if their purpose were primarily just warehousing the employees. What I’ve seen though are companies peacocking their offices (and the professionally dressed employees working therein) to prospective clients / investors / new hires. Shoot, more and more often, what follows the office visit is a tour of the new or newly renovated data center, complete with ginormous big-screen dashboards, as well as glass walls and flooring, exposing the labyrinth of blinking LEDs, color-coded cabling and even coolant pipes. So offices are sales / recruiting tools too.
I don’t think she picked the expensive [to you] place because of your self-inflated ripe age [of 27]. I think it’s because you presented yourself in the plural, with presumably the attendant multiple paychecks that you (plural) pull in: “Tab [was] on me, as I am gentlemen.”

I stand behind this messsage. Oh wait… I cannot…

Given sex-less is among the litany of “world-ending misery”, assume there’s lay, but not necessarily good lay.

This proud bougie has never owned any IKEA lamp, but plenty of Artemide Dalu, Tolomeo, and Tizio.
Hi [Manager Michael’s Last Name],
Kindly accept this ASCII GIF of a blow-up doll.
Thanks,

P.S. Gentle reminder that you spelled Pramod wrong, again.
Instagram posts of the Amish. Now, that would knock my socks off.
Anyone in a football jersey with a belly.
Gal gets the top 50% of the friends with the most IG followers.
Guy gets the rest.
I need to send mine in from my iPad XXXXVIII
Yeah well, he left out the obligatory Silicon Valley personal accessory known as MBA (MacBook Air).
Duh, get a job that lets you reimburse it as sales and marketing expenses.

About #3: what if the ex merely becomes bi, rather than switching teams completely?
But was it two girls on a beach volleyball court *at the same time* in story #1?
And ‘sup’ to the “that’s her purse” girl in story #2.
