Never.

When I’m replying to someone and I’m annoyed with them I’ll start a sentence with, “Additionally.”

If I’m really annoyed I’ll use it more than once.
What if their reply shows that they clearly didn’t read your email?

And do you think “As I stated below” is in the same vein?

Also, lol at Argo
Maybe, but I feel like additionally suits me.

I would additionally argo.
I don’t think additionally works in my example. But yes I’m sure Argo gets these kind of emails often.

My sister's in HR. I would've been good at it, I think, actually. Better than my actual chosen profession, for sure. Not because it's easy, I mean, just because I think my brain seems to work in a way that could be good in a HR department

I don’t get the trag/argo spat here.

Had to bounce a pregnant chick once but now that I think about, it may have actually been that we did not hold a position for her after maternity leave.

Wease man get the fuck outta there.
