Title: Getbiggers, help me understand this.....
Post by: SF1900 on June 21, 2018, 03:40:37 PM
You know what I don't get:

When you're at work, and someone sends an email wishing X person a happy birthday, they attached EVERYONE in the company to the email. Then, everyone else starts to click on "reply all" to wish person X a Happy Birthday, so you literally wind up with tons of emails. Why don't they just reply to person X individually, as to not clog up everyone's email?  ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

I know getbiggers have indepth knowledge on every subject, so I thought I'd pose the question here.

Thank you.

In before someone says, "Getbiggers don't have jobs."  :D :D :D

Everyone has to reply via 'Reply All' so they will get credit for their birthday wishes and not be seen as a non-team-player.

I normally send the person an individual email, as to not disturb people's work email with an unnecessary email.

Right, but then everybody else in the whole freakin company doesn't know what a great guy you are.  Which is the real motivation behind wishing happy birthday to some co-worker you couldn't care less about.

I guess as Dan-O said, everyone wants to be recognized and they do not want to feel left out, so others don't think they didn't join in.

Ill actually just wish the person a happy birthday if I pass them or whatever. I rarely will even send an email.

In person is better.

Social media taking away from the human experience.

Deadz, good point.

I think I am going to bring it up to upper management at Sears and Roebuck. I don't need 100 emails while I am trying to help people on the floor and run the cashier.

I work with a team of 25 people and maybe 2-4 do what you describe. It doesn't bother me, but I guess it gets annoying if you work with a large number of people.

25 emails is still one too many emails!!

I don't respond to birthday mails, nor to the endless "I'm leaving after xxx years". I do not care about colleagues in general, only a few who I'll keep in touch with. When I do leave my current job Ill be sending a mail to my manager and 1-4 people.

99.9% of the time I will not respond to everyone in the email.

If I choose to wish someone a happy birthday, I am going to do it on my own time, without having to announce it to the whole company.

Willingly informing your workmates that it’s your birthday should be an offence punishable by a good hard punch in the mouth. Once was shiftmate with this horrible fat little baldy stinking cunnt who for about a week talked about nothing other than his upcoming birthday, bloke was in his 50s for fucks sake, completely refused to acknowledge his birthday in any way because of this

LOL I think once you get past 16 making a fuss over your birthday is just odd. Glad you blanked that bald prat, wonder what he was expecting probably a card and cake, maybe wrapped presents too?!

Yes, he has a very unique style. I think you could recognise a Henda post without seeing his name just the way he writes would be enough. Not many others you could say that for, maybe Marty Champions as he talks such utter scrambled bollox in his own inimitable style!

I love when this happens, whether its birthdays or recognition

I love the 25 emails that are so thoughtful and personal: have a great day, happy birthday or the ever popular great job and keep up the great work.

To be fair, he didn’t inform anyone it was his birthday.

Someone else just happen to know and sent an email.

When you're young, every birthday is a milestone and achievement. You can recite it with a blink of an eye. Turning 21 is monumental. Then the next decade is pretty cool. Then when you pass 40 you have to think about how old you are, cause you don't care anymore - hate the attention on birthdays.
