I thought it was kinda weird when I got this email. I mean, I'm not even a Wizard!

It's not a spoofed / phishing message or anything, someone in the marketing department just fucked up.

GAF, ever fucked up this bad at your job?

I ALMOST accidentally retweeted a very very very political tweet while managing my companies twitter account that would have got me fired. Thank god somehow, someway, i caught it just in the knick of time.

tbh that could be a hacker who just has a normy Twitter culture taste in humor.

I worked IT with a guy that sent out a company wide email to sell nutritional supplements. That was not accidental though.

I did this fuckup when I was 25 at one of the first professional jobs I had. All of our company clients got an email with the lyrics to the ThunderCats song.
The engineering manager was upset at me, but nothing came out of it.

And this is why you never put live customer data on a test server, and never connect a mail server to it.

The worst I've seen was waaaaaay back in 2000 - I was working for a fairly crap web dev company and we were replacing an old site that used frames. So our designer who is a complete moron decided to make a placeholder page with "bollocks bollocks bollocks" written all over it, unbeknown to me, and put it in the site, but of course we didn't see it because we were using the non-frames version. Uploaded it, client has the frameset page cached and one frame points to the bollocks page. The client was unimpressed but miraculously nobody got fired.
