Sending an email was one of the first things we were able to do on the world wide web, and its overall function doesn’t seem to have changed much over the years. So why is it that so many of the people we work with seem incapable of doing it correctly? 

If you’ve ever worked an office job, you will probably have had to suffer at the hands of your inbox and the people who insist on spamming it more than once. This has been neatly underlined in a TikTok by @ericalueth, in which she complains about her colleagues’ apparent inability to avoid hitting «Reply All» in unnecessary situations. Plenty of viewers chimed in with mixed opinions on the criticism, with some claiming it did occasionally have its uses. 

We’re all guilty of accidentally pressing the wrong button or cc’ing the wrong person from time to time, but making a habit out of it becomes an annoyance for everybody involved but you.
