Here at Hydra we are participating in a mandatory holiday potluck lunch combined with the all annoying Secret Santa. I being the eyes and ears of Hydra have been appointed assistant to the company appointed party planner and by such association have become a target for the drones’ anti pot luck whining. Great.
Anyways yesterday the planner sent out an office email reminding the staff about the event and their gifting responsibilities then today I sent out another email informing the entire staff to clear out their fuzzy funky food from the fridge so we have room for the pot luck food tomorrow. Following me so far? Well about fifteen minutes ago this is what went down:
Ebay : GEE!!! Don’t you think you should send out an email reminding people about the Pot Luck?
Me: You mean besides the one Planner sent out yesterday?
Ebay: No like nobody is gonna remember there is a party tomorrow. I didn’t remember so I don’t think anybody else remembered.
Me: I would rather not send out another full company email after we reminded everybody yesterday.
Ebay: Who ? When? I didn’t get any email!
Me: What about the email I sent this morning about cleaning out the fridge because of the pot luck part y tomorrow.
Ebay: No I didn’t get that either. You see you need to send out a reminder because nobody got the other ones.
Me: That’s odd because all the emails are still in my inbox and they are addressed to the entire staff. Maybe your email address is not on the distribution list. I will call IT support and have them check the address lists.
Ebay: Oh no don’t do that I mean I don’t read any of those emails that come into my inbox that are addressed to the whole staff. I just delete them.
Me: Well Ok… I guess I will only need to send an email reminder to those people who don’t read their emails, because I am assuming anybody who read the first two email reminders kinda knows about the party.
