Comment on When I’m Mistakenly on an Email Chain, Should I Reply All Asking to Be Removed?

Comments

At a former job someone sent a completely inane email asking about something personal to an HR email list or all people in the company, about 21,000 people.

Why does such an email list even exist? For some kind of HR emergency? Aren't there other emergency messaging systems that could be more effective?

At my company, certain lists can only be used by certain people to prevent exactly this sort of thing.

Perhaps they implemented such a restriction afterwards. Fortunately I never found out; perhaps they did.
