gentle reminder to please do that fucking thing I asked you to do yesterday because my manager's manager is on my ass about it. I'd do it myself but I literally do nothing around here. thanks
I just assume someone saying "Gentle Reminder..." at me is, at best, introducing new information that I couldn't possibly have known.
