Right!? What kind of email correspondence is this person engaged in that takes them 4 days to process and reply to?

I'd be interested to see their timeline for other forms of communication.

That's what I am thinking. There are some things that make sense to take while but it seems weird to me to ask for a semi-blank check like this. I have coworkers that are awful at responding (weeks oftentimes) and it's super frustrating.

If you need a fast response, don't use email. In general, here's my order of urgency and expected time to resolution:

physically meet w/ them or phone call - <1 hr
IM/SMS/etc - <1 day
meeting invitation - by the meeting time
physical mail/note on their desk - 1-2 weeks
email - <1 month, but probably <1 week
create a "ticket" - ??

I try to go as far down that list as possible, but no further.

If you're getting frustrated, it means you're probably going too far down that list.
