The Joys of Life At A Big Corporate – Part I
Every once in a while somebody sends out an email to a mailing list that turns out to span the entire office. Very often this results in a barrage of emails from people asking to be removed from this mailing list. Fun begins when the thread explodes with people asking others to refrain from ‘replying-to-all’, while ironically doing the same!
The joys of such exchanges can truly brighten up what may have been a boring day till then!

It seems this is some game… Everyone replying please – “Please stop sending mail”
Better follow what you guys think best to stop this chain. Else many need to waste their time to read this and delete the spam.
