You think it needs to be high importance? It is perfectly reasonable to indicate the priority on anything,

Haha this is great I should start doing this too

Only works if

1. Recipient reads email

2. Recipient notices the priority

This is true of all emails. You have to open the email and notice the words👍

What did you email thread say

Was the client triaging? Or was it a slap in the face to you? Perhaps the client didn't want a consultant and was being petty as humans can be at times.

Alternate perspective- since you
Likely Bill by the hour, client might be signaling this can be grouped with other items on a non time sensitive basis, when your otherwise already working on their file

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
