Pet Peeve: The CC Power Trip

If you are going to write someone an accusatory e-mail and "cc" that person’s supervisor, her supervisor, and a third interested party, then you should also "cc" all those people when you write back to that someone to apologize because you were totally wrong in your accusations.

how about when apologizing for an accusative email that was sent to the entire company and stockholders you don't apologize by saying "I never should have done it in your condition*". Not that that happened to me or anything. Office politics suck!!!

*condition = pregnant
