An email chain came in:

SENIOR ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE: This customer needs their contact email changed. I changed it in CRM two weeks ago and they are still receiving emails at the old address.

SENIOR TECHNICAL SUPPORT: There is only one email on file and it already has the new address. [3 MB screen grab of CRM page as evidence.] Contact [First of May] to figure out why.

FIRST OF MAY: Recommend customer unsubscribe from marketing emails on their old address.

I was working the computer lab desk in community college the first year they offered "intermediate web design" in probably '99-'00. (I was in the class, and they only person to get a perfect score on the no-one-will-get-a-perfect-score midterm.)

One of my classmates, a middle aged guy, asked me a question about his homework right after we were introduced to CSS. He was trying to create new HTML tags and then style them, like
code:

<style>
blue {
color: blue
}
</style>

<blue>this is blue</blue>
He snatched his paper back and stormed off when I told him he could only style existing tags that way, and could only define classes not tags.

That really should be a firing offense. I can allow for clicking on a link or trying to open an attachment, but the level of dumbness that allows for that kind of thing is simply staggering.

Do they have scared-straight style classes for password security like they do for drunk divers?

Front line customer support to sales rep: "customer needs help with web portal, can't use her freshly reset password."
Copies me, my boss, her boss, the sales rep's manager, and the entire tech support department.

Her boss: "great collaboration!!"

Got a request today from the useless marketing team middle manager: "send me the meta on our dot com for our Amazon nav bar."

At least they used the word meta so I could infer they wanted our keyword list.
