What's the Outlook? Not good.
by Anonymous at 12:50 PM
The following is an actual phone conversation I just had with a guy I work with named Bill:
Bill: "Hey Brian, you said yesterday that you were going to send me a meeting notice with the bridge information. Are you still working on putting that together?"
Brian: "I did that already. You accepted it."
[10 second pause]
Bill: "Oh you know what? I have my outlook set up to where it automatically accepts invites and then sends it to my deleted folder. Yeah never mind, I got it. I'll be there."
Brian: "Okay, did you need anything else?"
Bill: "No that's it. I'll talk to you on the bridge. Thanks."
That is a stupid and risky thing to do.
When I feel like messing with people, I'll turn off the meeting reminder.
You should send him a meeting invite to go get his haircut with you in 3 months or something.
