Like all modern computer technology, these are concessions to 2nd wave millennials who may break down in uncontrolled fits if they don't receive constant validation and reassurance.

it is actually 100% of the time an obese middle aged woman with hair that always looks wet somehow who will unironically say "case of the mondays" at least four times a week

100% of the time

Dear OP, many of us (well, a number of us) have grownup jobs where this is a needed thing. Sorry you are a poor lowlife.

Man I've worked with a ton of clients and the one standard across all of them was that the only emails that requested read receipts were entirely unimportant questions about things the asker should already know, and always came from utterly expendable people who thought they were super important and vital. Is that you? That sounds like it might be you.

If you need read receipts to ensure people read your banal email turds then it means you send so much worthless email that people have started tuning you out. People that send emails that other people actually need to do their job properly don't need to pull that poo poo.
