Do you know someone who puts a quotation in their email signature? Most of these signatures are annoying—especially those coming from work email.
A few days ago I got this email from one of my counterparts in another department. She was pissed that I hadn’t done something she thought I should have—even though it was in her court and she got called on it in a meeting.
The email went something like this:
WHY DIDN”T YOU SAY SOMETHING IN THAT MEETING?? I CAN’T BELIEVE NO ONE SAID ANYTHING! It wasn’t MY fault that it was SCREWED UP and NO ONE SAID A DAMNED WORD! This is gonna come and BIT ME IN THE ASS Come BONUS TIME IN a few weeks. I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS SHIT!
What was funny is that her signature line was:
"I don’t sweat the small stuff, and I’ve discovered that it’s all small stuff."
You gotta admit---that’s funny.

Many people at my workplace have gone to inserting their picture in their emails--right above their name. People should not do this.

Oooooh I am going to think of a signature for my emails too!
Is "fuck off you morons" too offensive?
I love things like that. On a similar note, I've come to realize that anyone who has "Have a great day" or anything similar in their outgoing voice mail message is nuts.
At least, that's been my experience.
i simply don't care enough to give myself a signature line and i don't pay attention to those that do. in fact, i feel that most people who bother to mess with that crap at work don't have enough work to do at work and should be given more to do.

I am going to have lowering the tone of the internet since 1996 on all my emails I htink
Yes, the irony is nice, but I am too busy laughing at the wrong tense of bit me in the ass line... but I'm in finals, so all typos make me laugh or cry...
