Telling your boss you have a serious problem with a coworker.
Why: email lacks tone and nonverbal cues, is easily forwarded or misread, and can escalate or create liability when sensitive interpersonal issues are handled in writing. Better to raise serious personnel concerns in person (or via a scheduled call), document facts calmly afterward if needed, and follow HR procedures.
