...but I am the Queen of the email forward etiquette. Well, self-professed Queen. OK, what this really is is a list of pet peeves.
I love getting jokes, funny pictures and the touching stories that make me sob like a freaking baby. I even forward the really good ones on to others. What I’m tired of is wading through mountains of text until I get to the story/joke/list of things from when we were younger than rocks, etc. Please see the suggested guidelines listed below:
- Clean up the subject line. If I see the “FW:”, I will automatically click delete.
- Remove the prior senders’ information and comments. I don’t need to know what Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice have to say about the joke/story/tale of woe/bad luck chain letter. I don’t know them
- Speaking of Bad Luck Chain Letters; knock it off!
- Finally, regarding the emails that claim if you “send this email to 10 people, watch hat happens! It’s awesome! Blew my mind!” So, what will happen? Nothing. Nothing will happen. Well, I suppose something will have happened. You will have wasted 10 minutes of your time. And mine. And Bob’s & Carol’s & Ted’s & Alice’s.
Snark out!
