“Do the needful” and “kindly revert back with the same” still in use 🤔
It’s well established that these phrases lead to negative perception of the people who use them. They’re associated (whether justified or not) with incompetence and certain racist undertones. Why are they still widely in use among Indian English speakers? You’d think people would learn to stop using phrases that they know won’t get a positive reaction to avoid reactions that aren’t related to the task at hand. Or maybe they really just don’t know...
Are you pressurizing me into conforming?
Let's stop it with "very less" while we're at it.
Why the fuck do I still end alll my emails with thanks I’m not even thanking them in most cases!!!!!
I can guarantee it isn't the "revert" and "needful" portions that are associated with incompetence, lol. Grammar is, generally speaking, a very weak point in the field of IT. Which is so ironic....
All I had to read was “do the needful” and knew this was Amazon! 😂
Those are phrases I’ve not heard in a while!
Some very successful people use these phrases. Just sayin
