#but also are you intruding on their conversation if they're talking amongst themselves?

[dinosaur-mayonnaise]

three way emails are so ANNOYING

you add a third person and suddenly none of the regular social rules apply.

and don't even get me STARTED on cc's. i can never be a corporate girlie bc to me these are the horrors.

#are you meant to say 'dear all'? #are you meant to name the two other people? #who knows #if one of the people reply to your email saying only 'dear [y/n] do you reply back saying only 'dear [their name]'??? #do you still include the third person in the 'send to' option? #or do they get downgraded to 'cc'? #and what if the other two people are having a conversation without you but still including you in the email #are you meant to acknowledge them? #bc i always find 'yes i've received this' emails such a waste of time #but also is it rude to ignore them? #but also are you intruding on their conversation if they're talking amongst themselves? #but also would they still send it to you if they didn't want you to reply? #or do they just want you to be a passive observer? #don't even get me started on when YOU'RE the one cc'd in #let alone being bc'd in #pain torture agony #i hate this someone needs to burn outlook #let's go back to handwritten letters through carrier pigeon #or better yet telegrams which charge by the letter so you don't have to bother with pleasantries
