Where I work people have started doing the short signature immediately before the giant contact info signature.

I think it's asinine but literally every email I've gotten from someone outside my team in the last two weeks has done it, so now I'm doing it too lest someone think I'm being rude or some shit.

At work I don't write a text signature at all. My contact info is in the header already. If they demand a signature, then it's going to be a detached GPG signature.

That makes email threads much more difficult to parse, it's useful to be able to tell when an email ends and who sent it.

That's in the headers!
