What a load of crap. You understand that some people get married when they share the same values and are both happy with the rules, right? Don't act like one rule fits all, it doesn't.

As the supply chain person in an organization that doesn’t hear about promotions for products I buy until 3 months after the promotions launch, I would have thought this email is a godsend. I would make sure what you are saying for dates are actually hit.

Went into a company wide meeting once where the sales team was chanting motors, motors, motors. We had not bought extra motors and a global chip shortage had just started. They had added motors to the sales teams bonus goals. It was a long year.

"Please do not reply all with your Mousse choices".

//Replies all.

"Please don't reply all to the reply all - You are clogging my mail box!

//Replies all.

The really annoying thing is when it cascades.

We've occasionally had incidents where someone accidentally sent a company-wide email, presumably because they chose the wrong distribution list. This is inevitably followed by people replying that he made a mistake; except they use Reply All so the entire company gets those. This tends to be followed by people telling them to stop responding - again, company-wide.

I seriously will never understand a man’s desire to look at other women in a sexual way who aren’t their partner. But that’s just me, I guess. Say goodbye to your relationship if you put photos of random women on Insta over your real live girlfriend.

If it's internal email with an internal email server run by internal IT department, they can just delete the email from all the inboxes. If it goes external, it's out there forever.

Those people will be either forever alone or cheated on the whole time.

Yes, it’s normal. At my old work there was an “all” mailing list that went to everyone at the company. Sometimes when HR would send out the menu for the Christmas party people would accidentally reply to all so everyone see that they were ordering pate, roast Turkey and chocolate mousse. They would then be asked about food constantly for a week, in typical sarcastic UK fashion.

I will point out the good butts and boobs in public to my boyfriend lol. You can get hungry outside of the house, as long as you come home for dinner.

I did something similar once and accidentally got a coworker fired because of it... I had to send a write up of an incident where one of my cashiers yelled at a little kid in our store to the HR manager, because the kid's parents were rightfully very upset. I was not familiar with the email address book on our computers, there were multiple categories with the same addresses so I just sent it off to "Human Resources"... I come back from my day off to find that I sent that email to the ENTIRE HR department, and when so many people saw this incident, there was a lot of pressure on the store manager to fire her immediately. Though it was on accident, everyone working there was sort of relieved - she was rude, racist, and generally a pain in the ass anyway.

Shhhh

Yes I add an & sign in the to or cc fields so if I press send it doesn’t send. Also really good to store draft emails in my job role when I have to send out status reports

Yes, I was picking apart the way you said it that suggests cheating is somehow OK because "She's not involved".

For some people, monogamy includes not staring at (semi) naked women for sexual gratification.

Not like my colleague, who emailed a quote and attached our costs and sales price email to it. Unbelievably the client seems to have never looked at the attachment, as work was agreed despite ludicrous mark-ups.

I worked in a very conservative industry back then and I was very junior and prone to mistakes. If you are sending confidential emails, send it to yourself first. That way, you can also capture any formatting mistakes that might appear differently once someone receives the email, or any mistakes in general. Once you are happy with the email, remove the to: and info on top and your signature if any, and send it to people the email is intended to. A lot more work but I used to do this for very confidential emails, or emails that are super important and will be scrutinised all over.

> PLEASE REMOVE ME FROM THIS LIST

>> i think this was sent to the wrong dist. list

>>> STOP REPLYING TO THESE EMAILS!!!

>>> this doesn't pertain to me; please remove me

>>>>>>>> HI WHAT IS THIS ABOUT???

>>>>>>>>>> GOD PLEASE STOP REPLYING TO THESE EMAILS OR AT LEAST STOP HITTING "REPLY ALL"

.......

My god

Don’t worry about it too much OP. Like others have said it’s only internal. I’ve had worse, the head of legal in my reason OUT my source of info when he gave me the heads up on some non-compliance shit went down.

I asked him why, he said it was a mistake bc he was undulated with emails at q’s end. But that didn’t stop him from flipping out on me and asking why I was interrogating him. I explained that the issue was I was more concerned about the colleague who passed the info onto me, and how he could be ostracized by the rest of sales and marketing.

GC later came to his senses and apologized to me. But it wasn’t about me, it’s about the ethical guy who shared intel and could potentially be hated by the rest of the company.

Hope the fallout from your case is minimal. Corporate espionage is common, don’t beat yourself up because it’s likely been leaked to competitors via ex-colleagues.

If someone's already seen the email it's too late, there's no way to take it back.

The best you can do is send another email saying "please ignore this email", but that will just draw more attention to it.

and why didn't you call the head of IT to have them remove the unread email from inboxes?

So the DUMB thing about the Instagram feed is that they will show you things that those you're following will look at, especially if it has no idea your preferences.

I initially got Instagram to follow a few brands that I follow, just to get updates on them, and also a few of my friends. I seldom post stuff, and I almost never like stuff because that wasn't what I got Instagram for.

For the longest time, scantily clad women kept turning up in my feed even though I don't look at such stuff, and even after repeatedly clicking the "do not show me similar stuff" button. My gf was also semi-pissed when she saw my feed.

Eventually she started working at Meta and found out how their algorithms work and told me about them (see first sentence).

Recently, I started to like some watch photos (got into modding Seiko watches) and now my feed is nothing but watches.

Yea, looking at other people on the beach is fine for most relationships.

Another tip (and only because I FU big time before!) is that you can actually delay the send by 30 seconds or a minute so when you hit ‘send’ it stays in your outbox for a while. It’s somewhere in outlook settings

That’s saved me so much in my ‘oh shi*t’ moments and I’ve had a lot of those!

yep because it is perfectly normal if a person in a committed relationship looks at the boobs of women on the beach. OP is not mature enough for this relationship. that is fine.

it seems to be a stupid rule. do you. you are not done with playing around and she wants that from a relationship. this cannot be forced on anyone. go play around until you are mature enough to have a serious relationship.
