It’s becoming an increasing trend to add a “pronoun” to you email sig. I first noticed it with an HR rep...not a shocking discovery. Then I started seeing it with those in high level technical roles.
The most recent comes from someone who had a known promotion(yes, there are “unknown” promotions, 4am ballot drop kind). This person got a promotion and the pronoun followed.
It appears the “leadership” is pushing this crap.
Wow. Great comment. This story always fascinated me. I knew there was a deeper meaning and could never find it. This connects the dots and just feels right.
