Ex-Tabula Rasa

Adding insult to fuckuppery

One of our managers agreed to cover half the costs created when one of suppliers messed up an order. He sent the email approving the payment to the president of that company. The president of that company forwarded it to the people who create their invoices, and the people who create their invoices attached a copy of the whole email conversation to the invoice so I’d know that the appropriate person in our company had okayed everything.

When they attached the email, however, they forgot to take out the part where their company president says, “We definitely have our pants down to our ankles on this one, let’s get this out of the way as soon as possible before they bend us over.”

Naturally I’ve printed out a copy of the email and put it on my wall.
