I once had quite the mishap with a snotty email of mine that was accidentally forwarded to a client. No malice was intended, but it required a lot of groveling afterwards to set things right.
Do you have your own example? Please share. This space should not be about my humiliation alone.
I’m thinking about saving face today because my pal Kate from Random House sent over a funny email about a new book Send: The Essential Guide to Email for Office and Home.
Send is a quirky book about email etiquette.
Here’s the Amazon.ca page and here’s the Random House page.
The authors of Send have also launched a website dedicated to the book, thinkbeforeyousend.com.
You can share your bad email story.
Or you can just read other people’s stories.
Either way, I’m happy to know that my foible is not the world’s worst email faux pas. I didn’t get fired. Check out “District Superintendent loses job by CCing school board.”
