Anyone use a disclaimer at the bottom of their work e-mails?
For example:
The information contained in this transmission is confidential and intended only for the use of the individual or entity(s) to whom it is addressed, and may contain information that is confidential, privileged or unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem, no sense of humor, nothing better to do no lifers, or irrational religious zealots. If you have received this message, it was unfortunately, obviously addressed to you and therefore, I guess U just can't stop a noisy jack azz such as yourself from reading it now can I, even IF I did not intend to send it to you. NONETHELESS, if the contents of this email will quite likely make no sense whatsoever, thus reaffirming my original point that you were not the intended recipient, or, you are simply a mindless, medley bus riding, drooling dolt; either way, you should immediately delete this email message; again assuming that you possess enough intelligence to press the clearly marked button [read: key] on your keyboard; but I digress. In short if you are not the intended recipient, you are hereby notified that any distribution, copying, disclosure and use of, or reliance on, the contents of this transmission is strictly prohibited. So, to uber-clarify, for the sharp as a hard boiled egg types; if you are obviously not the intended recipient, any dissemination, distribution or copying of this email is not authorized (either explicitly or implicitly) and clearly constitutes an irritating social faux pas. Unless the word "absquatulation" has been used in its correct context somewhere other than in this warning, it does not have any legal or grammatical use and may be ignored. If you have received this communication in error, please notify the sender immediately and permanently delete the original message, attachments, and all copies. Please ensure to put in the subject header of the reply email, something to do with Viagra, Penis Enlargement or Nigerian Prime Minister so that I will be sure to include you email address within' my junk mail ignore filter. This will ensure that I will not be bothered again with you wasting my time having to read you're pointless rants. Additionally, this will also be helpful as it will expedite how quickly I can subscribe you're email address to several thousand pr0n sites during the coarse of my daily pointless web surfing. This CONCLUDES the flogging of that particular dead horse. That now having been said, no animals were harmed in the transmission of this email, although my whinny fat cat is living on borrowed time, let me tell you. Those of you with a good deal of chronic paranoia or overwhelming fear of various conspiracies will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden message revealed by reading this warning backwards, so just go back to roasting marshmallows on you're campfire, adequately stoaked with burning books. Although come to think of it if I typed "5318008:, that kinda' looks like "boobies" if reversed. Anyhoo, I guess its best to be safe then sorry, so it may be a good idea to cleanse yourself by pouring a complete circle of salt around you and your computer, so you can ensure that no harm befalls you and your pets. The Originator of this email is not liable for the transmission of the information contained in this communication, unless they are the originator in which case they probably are liable and rightly so considering the content of the aforementioned communication. I take no responsibility for non-receipt of this email because as it has without a doubt passed through a computer running Windows NT, and everyone knows how buggy as **** it can be. In the event that you do get this message then additionally, please note that I take no responsibility for that either; nor will I accept any liability, tacit or implied, for any damage you may or may not incur as a result of receiving, or not, as the case may be, from time to time, notwithstanding all liabilities implied or otherwise, blah, blah, blah... Lastly, the most important point, no matter what happens, it is NOT, nor ever will it be my fault. It's clearly you're fault as obviously you're the one with the problem here.
