OK, i am so cheesed off today.
What started out as a harmless joke at got ME ticked off by my own Team Leader (TL).
See, he had sent us a mass email about certain upcoming projects - he's good in a way that he tries to give us pep talks now and then - and it involved aspects that i intensely disliked.
Because i couldn't keep my mouth shut, i just HAD to reply back to all. That email of mine started a whole flurry of in-house jokes that only us seniors understood (one newbie gamely joined in that flurry of mass emails flying back and forth between us all) and for awhile, ALL of us felt Camaraderie ...
Anyway, that email of mine earned ME a reprimand from my TL via email.
I am still fuming which is why i am venting here. Have compiled the emails all together and posting it right here - i want this perpetuated for eternity! Names have been changed to protect the jokers and an anal idiot in my entire team ...

Hi all,
Let's continue to maintain our high standards of quality when it comes to parachecking and 2-way reading. There will be quite a lot of legislation movement over the next few months with N…, N… and N…, and it will require us to be especially careful when doing the checks - let's make sure that the legislation goes out accurate and correct.
Thank you all for your support on this.
Best regards,
RT (TL)

*thinks it over* actually, NH, your right - legislation would be the most effective cure for insomnia. OK, i'll try reading the Gambling Act 2003 tonite! ;-)

Hi K,
It would be preferable if you did not send out your dislike for legislation to the whole team. There are those that like legislation compared to commentary and it would be best not to influence the new members of the team, especially - let them form an opinion after working through it. New Zealand has a big focus on legislation and our team cannot run away from that.
Hope you can understand.
Thank you.
Cheers,
TL
