        I was once on a massive reply-all chain. Most of the emails were “stop replying all!” But one made me chuckle. “I like these emails it makes me feel important.”

          My favorite was when someone from HR finally replied and asked everyone to stop replying to all or else. Then one guy replied “Ok” to all.

          I was once in a reply all email chain where one person got so irrate at everyone else that a subreddit was created just to post memes about this person. I wish I could remember the sub name, but it was years ago and the sub probably isnt there anymore anyway.

        100% - it’s obviously a company run by slack jawed morons but the original comment had assumed it was only those affected getting the email, which is a different context

      It’s normally standard to send mass emails using BCC to avoid someone using the Reply All button to spam up people’s inboxes.

        Totally - just pointing out that implied in the first comment was those included in the email were the fired ones when that’s not the case

      Ah you’re right, I missed the “impacted employees will receive” line. Tired skimming fails again.
