Company E-mails

Gordonator SG

Company e-mails is such a wonderful thing don't u agree? what will we do without them? Laughing

[*] we send e-mails to eachother eventhough they are sitting opposite/behind eachother.

[*] when the boss scold u via e-mail, he isn't content with scolding u alone, he will confirm humiliate u by cc the e-mail to everyone in the office thus everyone will know about your incompetence.

[*] we call up the customers via phone telling them we have send them an e-mail.

[*] when sending e-mails, everyone like to cc to a lot of people regardless of whether they are of any concern to the e-mail sent. most of them will simply delete them when they receive it.

does your company have this practice that your immediate colleague/manager must know ur email password?

my manager asked for my password and said among my team, they know each other's password. I din dare to say no la.. so i gave. but they never give me their passwords wor. Rolling Eyes

Gordonator SG

not in my company. anyway, why would your manager want to do that? to check up on what u are doing? Laughing

browniebaobao SG

she said sometimes client email me and me on leave, they will need to check my email.

but right now, im not handling any client wor.

Gordonator SG

i see. give loh, afterall she's the boss. just make sure u tell everyone not to send u those personal e-mails like gossips, where to go for lunch, jokes etc. Laughing

but do take note by giving others your password means u others can send e-mails using your account. so be careful.

we use MSN in my company. Quite useful when want to gossip or ask colleagues for help, w/o the boss knowing.

i cc people to cover my own backside....at least i keep them in the loop and they cannot deny responsibilities after that..

BufPuf SG

email pw quite personal 1.

i don't think is appropriate to give.

change yr password lah. Even log-in password for computers also confidencial.

Because my computer got Credit card details and a lot of customer details, so even if i go toilet also must lock the computer

browniebaobao SG

i asked my colleagues, they said it's a common practice leh.

then what else can i say/do? Sad

Gordonator SG

then how come they know your password u don't know theirs? Laughing

but then, even if u know theirs, would u spy on their e-mails?

BufPuf SG

if yr mailbox those 'shared' one?

i got like 3 mailbox...one is everybody including vendors can access, one is our own company can access and one is my own 1..

u change yr password, then see whether anybody notice a not..

if A ask you, why u change, say u more convenient using something that is familiar to you...

then u shoot the person back ask why u need to use huh?..say u check for the person loh

browniebaobao SG

i definitely will...

coz i know she gossips about me. hiak hiak.

Gordonator SG

good idea. if anyone asks why u change password? that means that person is spying on u. Laughing

browniebaobao SG

prob is they will check when im on leave or mc.

so of course i wun know they check mah..

it's not shared de,,

and somemore.. they are my superiors leh..

BufPuf SG

then bo pian liao..

i dun think it's a common practise to share passwords..

unless is those shared mailbox or unless u on leave/mc want your colleague to help u to check some things but usually people change their password after that...

just be careful loh
