There is a special place in hell...

[rivka]

...for the person who just sent me an announcement about a grantwriting workshop for junior faculty and fellows.

In the form of an e-mail attachment.

Of a Powerpoint file.

There was nothing - nothing - in the attachment that couldn't have been conveyed in plain text in an e-mail. There weren't even any photographs or diagrams.

A special place in hell, I'm telling you.

We get memos sent to us in PDF format, of documents that were obviously faxed and then scanned into PDF. It's so stupid, especially since we also get the faxes.
