re: Do you know anyone that Cc:’s themself on every email?...

My favorite is the older individuals and very insecure younger individuals who put every honorific, club, Order, and membership they have in their signature block. Certain attorneys are notorious for this: Order of Baristers, Million Dollar Advocates, Multi-Million Dollar Adgocate, Association for Justice, etc. And every honorific has an image so the bottom of every email looks like a collage.

I had a boss who would read an e-mail in his Inbox and then immediately move it to the Trash. The Trash was for emails that had been read, but not acted upon. Once an e-mail was acted upon, he would permanently delete it.

Boy was he pissed when we ran out of disk space on the Exchange server and had to empty everyone’s Deleted Items en-mass to get space back.

Also - anyone who sends me a read receipt... I decline them on purpose.

Our hospital recently got rid of this even being an option thankfully. Just looks tacky.



Now everyone has a standardized signature with hospital logo, your name, title and extension

Preferred pronouns: She/her” in the signature. I got triggered

I've seen that. I work at a company that is super woke so I have to be careful.

We apparently have someone who is a them/they. Im just not sure how you'd address them. Back in Wisconsin it'd be "you's".

I had a customer that was an older guy who I would receive an email from every couple of days. He would never start a new email. Ever. He would go back to our emails from a few days ago and hit reply.
This had to go on for close to a few years until he retired. Hundreds of emails all in one message

People that request read receipts on every email trigger me. I'll intentionally select "no" every time

The frickin worst!! Gets on my nerves too.

Using “reply to all” gets you a warning where I work.
Why is this?

I’m currently working as a gov’t contractor, and big group level emails are routinely sent to about 2500 people. Reply to all is frowned upon.

I've seen sending it TO yourself and Bcc'ing a lot of folks if they're not part of the company, but not cc'ing yourself. That's sociopathy forming

I accidentally fat fingered that at work a couple of years ago, you would have thought I'd blasted an email out with the launch codes for the day to everyone

I gave a smartass “reply to all” to an email in my first couple months there, not understanding that it was a government-source email with 2500 on the distribution. I was pulled into a face-to-face sitdown with quickness. Lesson learned.
