And most of them, not being observant enough to realize it was sent by accident to everybody, will also fail to understand the difference between "reply" and "reply all". So their requests resulted in further emails to everybody, which prompted others to respond, and then the people that were off came back to work... In the end, it took like 2 weeks for people to get the picture, AFTER like 3 company-wide announcements of "please do not reply all". Not sure how many were trolling, but I sincerely hope some of them were fired for stupidity.

Hearing stories like these makes me miss working in IT, and the corporate side of business.. just a little.



Nowadays, I get to tell my boss that I have "literal shit to clean up" whenever I'm asked if I have checked my emails. Memaw is having explosive diarrhea right now, responding to emails from a week ago can wait!

There was a group of transients causing issues in our industrial park a few years ago. The police came in to brief us about it. The leader was a woman referred to as “Memaw.”

I'm genuinely not sure where to begin when talking about the weird and/or stupid shit I have seen people do in email...

That said, I do feel comfortable saying that if you want to remain employed, do not include things like "I slept with your daughter" in your native language when emailing the CEO. He knows how to use Google Translate just like the rest of us.

Why is it that all of your posts are worded in such a way that I always expect them to be followed by "and essay writing services are/Chinese Viagra is/get cheap iPhone here" or some other spammy announcement?
Are you a really really really good bot?
