I work in a large government building. Today I received this email chain over the span of about 20 minutes. Names have been changed to protect the innocent.

Kevin, to mail list for entire building
Good afternoon,

For those of you who are current members of the Building Emergency Organization who require First Aid Training it is important that you get recertified to help maintain a compliant Building Emergency Organization.


Catherine, reply to all
Kevin,
Can you please provide the training form template and details of the training session so that we can fill out said training form?


Ralph, reply to all
Would this be the training form to fill out? We also need the dates for the training and the location.

<link>

Thanks,
Ralph


Kim, reply to all
Could we please stop responding to all. It will clog up e-mails.

Kim


Patricia, reply to all
Please send to Sender only not everyone.

Thankyou


Kathleen, reply to all, quoting Kim
I agree.

Thanks Kim
Kathleen


Gerald, reply to all, quoting Kathleen
Could you please stop the “reply to all” Thanks


Brian, reply to all, quoting Kathleen
Please stop replying-all on this chain


I think we can all agree that Kathleen is the star of the show here.

Yes. Just guessing based on Canada + government, or do you work somewhere directly above or below me?

Reply all chains are hilarious.

One time someone at my workplace hit reply all, and it got on the news:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/23/microsoft-reply-all_n_3805641.html

Needless to say, it was probably a slow news day

I have my students email me their papers and once in a while they send the paper to the whole class. Always great.

I'm surprised there isn't a "confirm you want to reply to all" function by now.

Oh man. When i was serving in the National Service as a clerk, I accidentally Sent All(HQ).

It went up all the way to the top general. I got at least 20phone calls and a hell lot of flak and 1month duty personnel to it. My officer was incensed that he had to answer to all the other officers n superiors, including the unit CO.

What is so great about that? When I was a student we always gave eachother our works to compare, read and just to have. It's great to share that knowledge and all!

As someone who also lives in Ottawa, I can honestly say that I'm not surprised by this.

Nothing wrong with it. But it's an entry level class, they should rely upon credible people, not each other. Too many of them write a lot of bullshit but can seem credible.
