I'm so glad he's not in my department
At work, I’m part of a the web team that makes updates to the various corporate sites. Numerous people send us requests to make changes and updates. Yesterday I received the following email from one of them:
Can someone clarify why the Important Information Alert can still be viewed if you click on MORE for one of the two existing tech alerts, the pop up window still reflects this important information alert listed?
We get tons of requests a day, and errors are bound to happen. Most people simply contact us informally to let us know of the error so we can quickly correct it. This guy, however, sends belligerent emails and cc’s a whole bunch of department heads in the process. This prick is trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. I didn’t bother “clarifying” anything for him. I simply fixed the problem in two seconds and informed everyone on the distribution list that it had been corrected. What I really wanted to do instead was reply to his little email with:
You need clarification about why this happened? It’s because you’re a dickhead, you flaming asswipe.
