Have any of you encountered the folk, typically in a work environment, that whenever they contact anyone, it’s always something along the lines of, “Insert monotone request or statement. Thanks.”
If you do this, or know individuals who do this, what’s the intent behind this style of communication? In my experience, it usually originates from individuals who consider themselves a bit of a VIP. They aren’t necessarily bad people, but are usually either trying to skip proper channels for a request, or correcting someone while having no idea what they’re talking about.

Being on the spectrum and navigating office politics can be a nightmare. I’m not sure why people want everything to be “nice.” Now I’m dealing with the opposite problem though. I need to set boundaries and be very opinionated. I’ve spent 10 years ish dialing it back and now I need to dial it back up.
I guess it’s because people like the OP will scrutinize every word and associate some malicious intent to it.
