I am still on the payroll for a bit longer, and am still getting almost all the various listserv emails. Today, a routine "form submission" email was sent out by somebody and erroneously copied to the whole [Financial System X] listserv.
We are now up to 50 emails and counting (another one just came in), all saying variations of
"I do not know why I am receiving this."
This includes several emails stating that it's an error, including one from the listerv maintainer stating that it is an error. Yet still the emails keep coming, from people who are credentialed as Very Smart. It's kind of funny.
But that is NOT why I am posting here. It's that I LONG to make a little mischief, especially for this universally hated and derided [Financial System X] by posting something along the lines of:
"Dear folks: Notwithstanding whether you HAVE or HAVE NOT figured out that the "reply-to" field accidentally includes the whole listserv, NOW IS YOUR CHANCE! We can clearly see the vaunted Communications Desk for [Financial System X] does NOT have control of the listserv. NOW is your chance to tell the whole listserv your view of the [many] problems and what should be done about [Financial System X]. Take it. I want to hear your thoughts!
Of course, sigh, I wouldn't do it, being too timid. But do any of you ever have the urge to mess with MegaCorp's minds or emotions - just to make a little mischief?
