I told my boss to shave his legs

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

He took it as well as can be expected. What happened was, I forwarded both my boss and my wife my updated itinerary for my return from a long business trip. Both of them replied to my message. On my phone, emails with the same subject line get clustered together and can make it hard to tell which message you’re replying to.

My wife wrote back and said, “can’t wait to see you.” My boss wrote back “let’s catch up on Monday.” I meant to reply to my wife when I wrote:

“Shave your legs and buy a bottle of bourbon!” but as you’ve guessed, I sent it to my boss instead.

So I just got off a call with my boss, he said that while he’s up for having an old fashioned with me after work some time, he’s probably not going to shave his legs for the occasion. That seems reasonable.

His loss. He doesn’t know what he’s missing out on.

My boss is a woman, and I once almost accidentally typed “Got it” as “Go tit.”

4

Is she a cow orker?

I once wrote to Colleague A that if I ever said I was engaging in another project with Colleague B, to kill me.

Then I cc’ed it to Colleague B. He took it well, knowing he was a PITA to work with on his projects.

You had the courage to say what we were all thinking.

Good thing you didn’t tell him to shave his lady parts.

Hey my husband does a great erotic lady part shave on me =) Who knows what your boss and his wife are into =)

I think it can be salvaged. Apologize, offer to buy the bourbon yourself, and maybe he’ll still shave for you.

Given how well he took it, you should end every text chain to him similarly.

do you use Office 365? i despise this way of grouping emails by subject. luckily, you can turn it off by going into “View” and unchecking the box for conversation view.

I once emailed my boss: “Go shove hot embers up your poop chute, you horse-toothed jackass.” But what I meant to say was “Go shove hot embers up you poop chute, you horse-faced jackass.” Talk about embarrassing.
