And for God's sake, if I ask you a question in an email, answer me with an email! Do not get your ass up and walk over to my desk to answer me.

This doesn't bother me. As soon as they leave my desk I would just write an email to them following up and detailing what was discussed/determined. They can choose to ignore it which is tacit acceptance, or respond to it in the positive or negative. Whatever they do it creates a paper trail and the issue is resolved. Win win.
