oh god, this shit again...

last night before I left work I emailed everyone that I finished their project and literally told them the location where it was saved.

This morning I get an email...

WHERE DID YOU SAVE IT



....it's literally in the second sentence of my first email lol. People are so fucking stupid I swear

I really need to not reply for a few minutes or I might say something that will get me in trouble

 

"If you can refer to the email that was sent to everyone, announcing the project was finished..."

I answer anyway

 

I didn't ready your post very good, I thought you were still stuck in home like some of you guys were in the spring.

 

ah didn't know it knocked out the alignment, very possible then I would think. IDK if the caster would cause that though or not. An alignment read out of both sides would be interesting to see and might confirm one way or the other

 

AS PER MY LAST EMAIL, it is <here>.

 

That's basically what I just did minus the caps or they'd probably think I was being passive aggressive lol.

I almost copied/pasted my original email with the location in bold italics but figured that might not go over as well either.

 

I NEED YOU TO JUST GIVE ME THE FILE RYAN STOP PLAYING GAMES AND MAKING ME USE A NETWORK DRIVE TO GET THE FILE JUST PUT IT IN THE EMAIL SO I CAN USE OUTLOOK AS MY FILE STORAGE>IM GONNA GO POSTAL IN 6 MONTHS WHEN THE EMAIL EXPIRES AND I CANT FIND THE FILE AND THEN ASK YOUF RO IT AGAIN

ALL THE THE BEST KEVIN

 

Lol. I've had to rewrite so many emails to dial down the sarcasm.

I had a coworker once that would only ever read and answer the first question in an email. SUPER frustrating. I learned to just send one question per email eventually.

 

I love when older admins in my district yell in all caps for things that don't require it at all

 

got fucking damned door to door salesman keep ignoring my no soliciting sign and ringing the phaucking doorbell

 

This is probably the same guy who archived a critical application file to a floppy disk by dragging it from his outlook. Thus creating a windows shortcut on the floppy disk that pointed into an outlook PST file on his computer, which he then filed away for us to find years later.

 

I say screw off through the ring foorbell

 

That's the other thing I constantly have to explain to them, file size limits in emails and how making it fit the email's 20mb limit is going to make it look like shit lol.

They are terrified of Dropbox/WeShare/etc links for some reason

 

time for more signs

 

Top ten ways to shatter Office 2016, import a PST files from 2010 or previous

 

I'm glad I don't have to deal with those anymore. I had an annual candle and goat blood ritual where I ceremoniously dragged all of the previous years emails into a new PST file to keep them from getting too big.

 

Per our conversation yesterday... fuck that shit. Send the email you WANT to send, not the email you think they need to hear

 

Step away from the computer


Or video

 

Kevin didn't crank his fucking hog
