Can everyone PLEASE stop forwarding me e-mails?!?!
| (WARNING: ANGRY MONDAY RANT!!): I have had enough. I really have. I'm talking about the forwarded e-mails that everyone and their mother feel they MUST send to save humankind. Maybe if I had EVER requested to be included on every chain mail, survey, love your child/mother/Lord, be careful of strange men and tampons (not together), then I would be happy for this sage, valuable advice but I didn't ask for it and I don't want it!! I have gone so far as to ask friends of mine to not include me on mass e-mail forwards. One went so far as to tell me that I HAVE to have some of this information and she will not stop. Excuse me, isn't that SP*M? And besides that, do you really feel that if you weren't enlightening me on the evils and joys of the world that I wouldn't know anything about anything? If you ask me, it's called a little too much time on your hands and it's also called "let's-e-mail-everyone-I-know-in-place-of-a-personal-call-or-e-mail-and-call-it-keeping-in-touch" (conversely, if you meet me at a business networking event and take my business card for the sole purpose of adding my e-mail to your mass forward list, I don't really want to do business with you). Sorry to be so blunt, but I don't want your business or your e-mail or, if this is your definition of friendship, then your friendship either. Sorry if I have offended anyone :). Hugs? |
