This happens in every company as well. The lower down the totem pole, the more legible your emails.

New guy sends a carefully crafted, 6-paragraph email with context, analysis, decision point, options and recommendations, summarising a month's worth of work.

CEO's email, sent during another meeting: "ok. mak sure bob knows so it dosen't impact projext wildebeest"

The new guy has to scramble to figure out who's bob and what's wildebeest, and it turns out the CEO meant Peter instead of Bob
