Hey guys,

There's a sizeable number of cron jobs trying to hit the wrong directory and spamming the productname-alerts-dev e-mail list as a result. Can you switch the directories over? All it should take is replacing stable.dev.ourcompany.com with stable.dev.theircompany.com.

*** Or, read this e-mail again in ebonics care of an ebonics translator! ***

Hi Sully,

Crontab updated on web001 & web002 - I must say that was the best request I've received in my email in some time. Pimp speak really suits you.

I prefer the L337'ness of the following:

|-|1 $ULL'/,

(R0|\|74B UPD473D 0|\| \/\/3B001 & \/\/3B002 - 1 /\/\U57 54'/ 7|-|@ \/\/45 7|-|3 b357 r3QU357 1'\/3 r3(31\/3D 1|\| /\/\'/ 3/\/\41L 1|\| 50/\/\3 71/\/\3. p1/\/\P 5P34|< r34LL'/ 5U175 j00Z.

You must not put much value on your career, sending stuff like that over the company email system.

Haha. Part of my job until very recently involved viewing site uploads, which included a large amount of pornographic and otherwise very odd content. Everyone knew this, and everyone from the VP level on down routinely came by and asked where the latest stuff was at. We've also gone, as a company, to the peelers twice in the last two weeks.

I'm very unconcerned about this e-mail. :p
