If I wanted to condescend you, I'd start with the name.Speaking of English... why do some people message you with your name first?
Like:
Kat, hi, [insert boring work question]
surely it should be the greeting first?! or is it just me?
I can provide half of those.Morning
Really need a back massage. And a holiday. And a lottery win. And some cake
Have seen that. Rude if you ask me.Speaking of English... why do some people message you with your name first?

Then probably call you petal, too.
Eg.
Kat, hi Petal.
Exactly! and oh dear....Have seen that. Rude if you ask me.
I'd rather they skip the intro totally if they aren't going to include a greeting. I know my name and since it is my email they are sending it too, so do they.
Having said that, convention in my office is full-on 'Dear...' !
Like when you can see someone is typing...and typing...and typing... and then it appears and just says 'hi'It’s better than what I sometimes get in Teams when someone in a different dept/country will message me directly with…
Hi
And then let the tumbleweed blow past while I attempt to read their mind.

Only a naughty/bad girl would take umbridge with such pet names.Petal is in the same realm as "good girl".
It's just completely condescending in the work environment. I'm not a girl, I'm a woman. But my gender should also have nothing to do with it.Only a naughty/bad girl would take umbridge with such pet names.
But here's the thing with Girl, too.
- I'd never call a grown woman that - it's just a bit noncey.
Feisty!If they don't call me princess I ain't answering!
Feisty!
Very well, Princess!
