Pet peeve 2

There is a certain type of coworker who feels perhaps he isn't getting his due, and therefore feels he must cc anyone and everyone whenever he actually does something. Those individuals who are copied have no action to take, and often only a passing interest in the goings on.

'Dear Purchasing
I'm about to run out of _______'

CC: company President, CFO, Operations Mgr, your congressman, God.


This strategy usually backfires, because all the above parties just find you annoying.


This guy is a tool, don't be this guy.
