I hate when secretaries send out emails to the entire branch, division, center, or world without putting any effort into organizing them. I give you exhibit A:
I just got a slew of these things in the last two days. C’mon, people, you’re expecting a couple hundred people to read this. Put a little effort into just including the part that matters!
Sheesh.
Oooooh, I hate that, too. How many man hours are collectively wasted, and/or how many of these message are simply disregarded, merely due to this indefensible practice?
Personally, I just ignore ’em now. I get too much email to pay attention to messages that have nothing but cruft above the fold.
