Engineers enjoy getting updates and then delivering those updates to someone else who, in turn, puts them in some project management application that overflows within days. Software engineers prefer to discuss things rather than doing them. That's why they send a lot of emails with a bunch of people on them and always reply-all to make sure everyone knows they exist. They also use the printer a lot, especially for putting signs around the office about how to handle basic objects like the coffee machine. At least thats what it seems like email job people think.
