When I read that article a couple of days ago, this is exactly what came to mind.

Spent part of today as part of an interview panel. In the end it came down to two candidates and we struggled to separate which one to appoint as first choice candidate, and which one to have as a backup. 

Another guy on the panel started talking about the second candidate. "Well, his hands were shaking a bit, and he has grey hair even though he is younger than me. Maybe he has a medical condition. Maybe we should appoint the other one, just in case"

The woman from HR was, to say the least, not best pleased.

HR oblivious to practicality as usual...

I have had multiple emails from someone, all accompanied with the "high importance' marking on them. 

None of them are highly important. In fact, I would say they are all highly routine. Really pisses me off when people do this.

Hope they enjoy their 4.59pm response.

Might go for a job at scottsdad's work. By the sounds of the sort of charlatans they attract I'm sure I'd be running the place within a week.

I find active aggressive works much better than passive aggressive in these situations.

I get this all the time. 

Yesterday was my last day at work before taking a few days off. One student emailed me 5 times in the space of 2 minutes, all full of words like 'Urgent'.  All to do with the fact he has to resit a course in April 2023.

That isn't urgent to me.
