Yep! Sent an email *****ing about my boss TO my boss. Then tried to play it off like it was intentional. Didn't work.0

Bahahaha, that's horrible. I've never done that. I've sent them intentionally out of anger. Luckily everyone knows that I tend to speak my mind. But I'm trying to get something other than a lump of coal this Xmas season.

My wife's named Jan and so is one of the Supply Chain Managers. I've sent emails to my wife on more than one occasion and had the other Jan email me back with replies like "That sounds wonderful, but I think you meant to send this to your wife."0

Oh that's not good, I hope you've kept it clean.0 -
I send out mass emails to our 500+ members from time to time. Once while typing I must have hit a combo of keys that sent the email out mid sentence... and spelling an inappropriate word....0

Worst I've done with my work email is send a customer a link for my second job. Since it requires you to login, they were extremely confused.
My boss laughed at me, so it was all good.0 -
I sent my boss a self-evaluation once (it's part of our performance review process). His name is Stan, which I spelled "Satan," in the email. He has a sense of humor, though, and realized it was a typo. He told me I clearly needed some time off.
And once I sent out a strongly-worded letter to a client who was pissing me off, and at the end, I meant to say "Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions," but I left out the word "don't." It was unintentional, but I thought it was funny.0 -

I may have to "unintentionally" do this.0 -
Luckily, we have 30 seconds to "undo" a sent message. I like that feature.0

I've had some reply-all mishaps in my day.
I miss the ISP version of AOL. Unless I am losing my mind, I think they had an unsend option if the e-mail was sent to another AOL user hadn't been read yet.
But I could be losing my mind and making that up.0 -
We have this handy dandy reply to all button that will oftentimes pull in mass distribution list for the entire Army and a bunch of other agencies. Geniuses will hit the reply all message and say something idiotic. It's further compounded by other geniuses hitting the reply to all saying stop hitting reply to all. It then snowballs into other idiots joining in on the festivities. I kid you not, these emails will last for days.0

Even though I never sent them out this way (I hope), I used to do a lot of letters sending out contracts for signature and our canned language at the time was "Please have an appropriate representative execute these documents and return them for countersignature." Well, sometimes I'd type an extra "d" on the end of one word, and made it a request to have the representative executed!

I was the assistant to the Dean at a local college and received an email from him to HR concerning firing me. What kind of an idiot accidentally tags the person they're letting go in the email?0

OMG, do I work with you?? It is hysterical the people that will reply to say stop replying. God forbid it ever happens when you're on vacation and you come back to 300 emails.0 -
When I worked for TADLP at Ft Eustis, I sent an email to my boss/co-workers about Ft Rucker with an "F" in place of the "R" -- beyond that, I internalize things "too much" to send regretful email to anyone.0

When I first started here 6 years ago, there was a guy working here with the same last name as a friend of mine. My friend's name was Ed and the guy at my work was named Dave. I had met Dave a couple of times at business meetings, but we didn't know each other.
Over the course of the first couple years here, I kept sending Ed pics from family vacations, Motorcycle rides we had gone on (Ed and I ride together) and other stuff like that. Turns out I had been sending all these pics to Dave. After I sent pics from Puero Vallarta to him, he sent me a reply and said "Thanks for sharing." I never told Dave that those emails were meant for someone else. To this day, Dave thinks he and I are buddies now.0 -

Poor Dave, what a sad sad man. I hope you still CC him on those family photos. Bahahahaha.0 -

I've come to work with Dave over the last few years. We are in similar positions at different Plants. Haven't shared any family photos with him, but did run into him in person a couple years ago. My daughter won the Company Scholarship Fund for $10,000 and when Dave found out he made it a point to show up for the presentation. I introduced him to my wife and daughter. He's a very nice guy, but we come from different worlds.0 -
NO. NOOOOOOOO. I read, re-read, re-read again and STILL go back and re-read the sent email. I don't fool around with it at all.0

Lol, must be a governement thing. We've had Dept Notices about not feeding the email storms.

Probably the most embarrassing thing I have ever done, was have a typo in my Out Of Office message, I was informing people that I was out of the office due to a Pubic holiday in the UK....0 -

I misspelled a closing statement to one of my contractors. It read like this.
".....and in conclusion, I am extremely disappointed that you have failed to carry out my instructions yet again.
Retards,
Paul"
Didn't spot it. Contractor thought it was hilarious. I lost all credibility.0 -

Us too! THANK GOD!Luckily, we have 30 seconds to "undo" a sent message. I like that feature.
Before I actually noticed that we had that I got a nasty reply to an e-mail from a client that said, "Well I think I have been completely respectful and I will never be purchasing from _____________ because of your hostility."
I was completely confused. I went back to read my reply to them. They had originally said, "I respectfully disagree..." and when I wrote back I meant to say, "I'm sorry that you disagree, I also respectfully disagree." instead I wrote, "I'm sorry that you disagree, I also disrespectfully disagree."0 -

As soon as I see that first 'reply all', I set up a filter on the email subject line to move all other replies straight to trash. Works a charm.0 -
