There is a huge difference between Reply button and Reply All button

Many a times i openly talk about my hatred towards telemarketers. But these days i am getting much more irritated by another kind of spam! I call it the Reply All syndrome!! 

There is a particular reason that Microsoft or whosoever created email made two separate buttons! Why would someone like to read your email stating "Awwwwww!! Thats so awesome! Tigggghhhtesttttt hugs!!" when you suddenly get the urge to tell whole office that how you congratulated the guy you had crush on since past zillion years and who still asks "whose that" on hearing your name? 

And no, these are not the only kinds of weird reply all messages you get, check your inbox and you will surely find thousands of such weido messages! Managers scolding their juniors to submit unfinished reports by replying-all to whole office on the Green Lingerie Friday email sent by the junior on the eve of World Environment Day. Or a "Dinner at 9" sent to a team of 12 people :D (obviously everyone said yes :D ). The best one was two people discussing the hot-ness levels of third guy's girlfriend, needless to say the emails were going to over 10 people! (This time it was Yahoo groups at play! Even when you press reply, you send it to the whole yahoo group instead of sending it only to the sender!) Phew!

Anyways, seeing the frequency of the posts on this blog you must have guessed that mere work-life balance ko kissi ki nazar lag gai hai! I have been doing some crazy hours in the office last week, and as per the meteorological department - aane wale kuch dino tak mausab kharab rehne ke hi aasar hain! So keep praying to the rain gods for bloody heated up Delhi and to the gossip gods to make someone else try kissing rakheejee! Sala bahut boriyat ho gai hai ajkal life mein!!
