Nalis 5,402 Posted 13 January Report Share Posted 13 January On the subject of emails - if you are copied into an email and there is a general instruction to do something that isnt address to anyone but might fall under your remit, do you take it as an instruction or as an FYI since you were cc'ed? Different places I've worked have different approaches and it caused issues in the past Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Different places I've worked have different approaches and it caused issues in the past Cc shouldn't exist. If I'm included in an email, just put it in the normal 'to' section. The recipient gets it in the same way as any other email and any other email recipient. Unless it's stated in the email that it is just FYI or named separately you need to do something else.

oakman 791 Posted 13 January Report Share Posted 13 January The Captain Birdseye advert. ’Captain Birdseye loves nothing more than swimming with his grandson and fish fingers’. What the Fvck? Some old bloke in a sailors cap surrounded by children on his floating nonce-palace isn’t going to make me buy his wares. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was walking in the park and this jogger came from behind me and shouted at me to ‘get out of the f***** way” he screamed he was on for a PB or something! well long story short, he eventually turned around and I tripped him up! Doubt he managed he PB that day. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aus Fox 8,711 Posted 15 January Report Share Posted 15 January People who compare things that have happened to things that haven’t happened. For example when people say if a man/woman had said that... when the opposite gender says something slightly controversial or if a white/black person did that...when a different race does something slightly controversial. And then they try and compare two vaguely similar events, leaving out the context. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
