This Is Annoying

October 25th, 2010

and also pretty damned rude.

Scenario: Company contacts a reviewer, let’s call her Adriana, and asks if she might like to work with them to review items. She is excited because, well, wouldn’t you be? She responds immediately and says “Sure, let’s get this going. Can you tell me more about how you want it to work?” You fail to respond. Ever.

We live in a world where people expect instant gratification so I understand if it takes you a day or two or even a week to respond but for you to contact me, unsolicited, suggest a working relationship and fail to respond? It makes you look like a douchebag. Even if you’ve changed your mind, you could take the time to let me know so. It’s just polite. Anything else is flat out unacceptable.
