Requestion

When you give someone a requirement or request (i.e., tell them what to do) but deliver it in the form of a question, making it seem like they have a choice.
At the end of the meeting Sam's boss said "You'll send that report to me by 5pm today, right?".

When Sam was getting ready to head home Pat said "You better send that file before you go, if you don't you're going to get in big trouble!"

Sam sighed and looked for the report, knowing it wouldn't be read for a week (if ever) but also knew he'd hear about it in his annual review if he ignored another requestion from his manager.

requestion

A request that you do something, but doing it is formed as a pseudo question--often by a figure of authority--that's really a statement. (BTW--requests from your girl/boy friend in such a manner don't count; that's called rhetoric).
Scene: in an all-department meeting; your name is Beauchamp
The requestion...
Your boss: Beauchamp, could you put together an outline of every promo event from last year by tomorrow?

You: think WTF?!
