one of my mates at work received a very terse email from a client. Almost rude, but its sort of the blokes personality, and is funny in a strange sort of way.
Anyway my mate tries to send me this email for my amusement this afternoon. He writes (and I will paraphrase) - "look at this - what a idiot, I wont be replying to this"
Instead of sending this to me, he promptly sends it to the client in question.
I suspect he will get a b
king but, with an apology it will end there.
can anyone beat this?

Due to severe foot in mouth syndrome I have had to add email delay to one user at work for everything he sends
It sits in his outbox for 4 minutes before sending in case he thinks "bugger... Shouldn't have sent that!"

I never knew this option existed; thankyou for that (for use by a colleague, of course...)It sits in his outbox for 4 minutes before sending in case he thinks "bugger... Shouldn't have sent that!"

Not sure if you can, but there used to be a command in Windows from the command prompt where you could specify a PC to send a message to and it would pop up on the screen.
One chap in my office (a contractor) meant to send the word "bks" to the guy that sat next to him, however he manage to get the syntax wrong and sent it to every PC worldwide, this was in a company where they had over 100,000 PC's on the network.....he didn't last long 
I was supporting the server environment at the time and for months afterwards I would log onto different servers and find the message still on the screen!

Ive done similar with texts.
I was slagging off one of the managers (it was pretty strong), but instead of sending it to my manager, i sent it to her.
She replied with, "you didn't mean to send that to me did you?"
and i may have got bking from my boss from my incompetence at sending texts

king from my boss from my incompetence at sending texts This happened in a civil service department - twit of a person sent, by mistake an E mail to everone in the department, 100,000 + people. Meaning to send it to only those in their section, what realy buggered it up was that they put a read recipt on it. Nearly crashed an entire departments systems.
