Scum you say… of the Earth you say…
This is an e-mail I received after my boss did an e-mail blast for one of our companies.
As soon as it came in, we all started laughing at him for it. What I find the funny part is… while I’ve blanked it out, he sent this e-mail not only just to the e-mail address that sent him the offending e-mail… but also to every e-mail address he could think of relating to our company. So he replied to one address, and CC’ed 14 other addresses. The STRANGE part about that is… I guess he ran out of e-mail addresses, because the last 7 addresses? All were to the same person. Unfortunately the very nice co-worker of mine that sits behind me (so I warned him as soon as I noticed that)
Back-story is, a few years ago he ordered a job from my company, first order is COD, always. No exceptions. It’s industry standard for first-time-orders. Well he didn’t want to pay the COD, and we didn’t want to release the product without payment. Apparently in all this, the guy missed the deadline for his customer/end-user, and the end-user I guess didn’t pay him & decided to deal elsewhere. So he blames us for the lost customer, and we probably sent the bill to a collections agency for payment. So he now thinks we’re scum of the earth.
Too funny. I had a great laugh. Also I couldn’t wait to post this so I did as soon as I could while still doing my job.
