re: People who request read receipts on every single email sent

Not unreasonable to request knowing that someone has seen something and be expecting a response. In fact it’s extremely retarded of all of you to expect otherwise for some reason. I guess this is the mentality of people that don’t make the decisions
It’s the mentality of adults who do what they’re supposed to without the requestor needing a meaningless e-pacifier because they’re worried they’re going to be ignored.
Try hiring adults and being one yourself.

What about CCing yourself on every email sent? Asking for a friend
But we here know you’re up to no good.

What's even worse is when somebody in your office has that turned on AND there's a needless inter-office chain email going on all day too, so I keep getting requested all damn day. Seriously, our bosses could send a company-wide email saying we can go home early that day, and everyone hits reply-all just to say "Thanks boss ::smiling emoji::" and I get a read receipt request for these people's emojis that never should have been sent to me in the first place.
My pettiness boiled over one day and I recruited everybody in the office that I knew was annoyed by it and we made it a point to send the read receipt every time, so this person got a dozen receipts for their stupid arse emoji they just had to hit reply-all for.

This is the one flaw of using Google Workspace. You can't decline it like you can on Outlook (although technically I could use Outlook and GWS but that would defeat the point)

My email is set not to send read receipts.
I have mine set to ask everytime so I can get satisfaction in the personal and purposely denial to send one.

Our company email is set for read receipt as a default, individual can't change it

I have always been on the side that anyone who replies all to an email that clearly was a mistake should be fired. They don’t have the ability to function as an adult
A guy on my unit did it once and got into big trouble. Then, he did it again about 2 years later.

I'd rather them that those that "reply all" on a 90 person email that only needs responses back to the original sender.
This is the easiest way to spot an idiot. It baffles me people still do this shite.

My favorite thing to do with Outlook is send low importance emails when people piss me off.

Not as annoying as the people who respond "Got it" to a companywide or departmentwide email.

Is this the “work inside with the women” thread?

What the assholes who click the exclamation point thing on the email as if I'll see that and read theirs first and really think about their message.
