Your Definition
A statement, politely worded as a question, that conveys a clear command. Typically used in email to a lazyass peer or colleague you require something from, and hence are forced to be nice to. It’s effective use not only prevents bitching and whining that they don’t answer to you (aka the “you’re-not-the-boss-of-me” effect) but forces them to get off their ass and actually do their job without looking like a total bastard. (Note: Best used when the email includes a cc to the lazyass’s manager.)
