Am I That Old-Fashioned?!

nasty greedy

Usually when you get in contact with others... don´t you first greet them? Say at least "hello"?

I´m so sick of people´s behaviour when using E-Mail these days when writing to a group-mail-account.

We started introducing picture puzzles and always combine it with a raffle and sometimes cool stuff to win, like concert-cards and such.
You sure know picture puzzle, huh? You have a specified number of fakes, each fake gives a letter and those letters make a word.

Guess what kind of E-Mails I get in 95%?

Dear editorial staff,
I guess the word you are looking for is "the solution".
Kind regards, "name"

Hello?!!! There is a human being reading your damn E-Mails!!! Where are your manners?
Would you stomp into my office and do that?!
Not greet me, just throw the solution at my face, followed by your name, turn around an leave?


The internal communication celebrates it´s 40 years anniversary. And this month our portal celebrates it´s 10-years one.

Another raffle, really, really cool prices to win.

Don´t you think someone would even congratulate us?
So far: None.

The people are just nasty greedy, how sad is that?

Sorry, just had to get it out in my morning-break. Back to work (which today is not fun, hence, I´m really very disappointed).

Addendum/update: So far out of some nearly 1450 hardly 100 managed to adress us and give congrats...
