While the OP could have chosen a better title for her thread, the message within is a good one. I did not find it snippy at all, although admittedly I have been on the receiving end of the "I am rushing NEXT WEEK at Bama and I need a rec written today" request that was not followed up with any kind of thanks, written or otherwise.

With my schedule I very rarely write a rec the day that I get the packet. In fact, about a week later is typical for me unless we are up against the deadline. When a PNM takes the time to send a hand written note, it reflects very positively on her. This in turn does affect the time and care that I take to write that rec. Admittedly I do put a little more effort and work into those PNMs that demonstrate good manners.
