Not reading e-mail can be funny

So, this is one of the few times I will talk about my job. First I have to say my boss is very busy and gets a lot of e-mail. One day I was in a meeting with my boss and as we were discussing something an e-mail popped up on his screen. He quicked looked at it and said "I am not going to read that." I must have had a shocked look on my face because my boss quickly replyed "Oh but I would never do that to yours" I took that as a good sign and proudly told him that I sent him an e-mail with some stats he wanted for a meeting. He then said, without a missing a beat, "Oh I am not going to read that either."

Although it was a bit deflating to here that, I got a good laugh.
