Yikes! I felt bad and fell all over myself apologizing - and it was fine but will that client trust me with a bcc again? Maybe not anytime soon. Jenn is right, email is a killer and it ends up biting us all in the butt eventually. BUT, it's also nice to have an email trail in case you ever need it for CYA purposes too - so it goes both ways. Just part of modern day office politics! My latest “DOH!” moment was when I hit reply all and then send… before realizing that the client had BCC’d me on the email in the first place. Yikes!

I LOVE IT! We've all done that before. I believe one of my coworkers accidentally forwarded an email to another coworker where I was complaining a bit about the task I was asked to complete and I believe my words were "I know this is a pain in the ass... because it's ALWAYS a pain in the ass" sooo needless to say that wasn't too good. My coworker felt terrible and luckily it didn't get any farther than the other internal coworker before it went to the client! WHEW! Jenn that is hilarious! I LOVE IT! We’ve all done that before.

I used to work in the catering department at a fancy-pants resort. Most of the chefs were gay, but I swear one of them had an eye for me. It became a running joke with me and a colleague. The Chef send me an email that I interpreted as flirty so I forwarded the email to my friend and said "See, I told you he wanted my sweet ass!". Did I say forward? I meant, reply. I hit the REPLY button and it went to him. Luckily, HR did not get involved, but I make sure to check the TO box very carefully before I hit the send button! Email well get you every time.

I'm learning slowly but I have made great strides since I started. My first few run ins with people who didn't see exactly my way... didn't go so well. I believe I ended up crying hysterically in front of my boss. Just another leasson learned I guess! HA tell me about it! I’m learning slowly but I have made great strides since I started.
