4000 emails in 20 minutes
« on: August 23, 2007, 01:54:47 PM »
Last Wednesday at YTI my friend just got back from Sheetz for lunch. He didn't want his sandwhich so we have email at the school, so he sent a email to some people who wanted it. Well then those people decided to send some offers of some outrageous items, some of the good ones. Ford Crown Victoria for $10, one guy wanted all the seasons of South Park, and another wanted to sell season 4 of the X-Files. There were plenty others, but anyways. Those morons sent their emails to every YTI campus in Pennsylvania, and to the 300 students and 50 teachers.

Needless to say that the director and the adminstration were pissed off. So they pulled the plug on the email that day. They monitored over 4000 emails in about 20 minutes on the networks. Needless to say it didn't slow down the network because we have 2 T1 lines at the Mechanicsburg Campus. Go to love those people who don't know how to use email properly, then off topic. We had this one student who is Russian and decided to send a email that just had the word "test" on it. That is it, he sent that to everyone at YTI just to see if his email worked.

Wow....that's an amazing story. Please keep us posted on any further developments in this exciting saga.
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

Your sentence structure is atrocious. The elementary grammar that one normally should know is nonexistent in this spiel. Your redundant use of word combinations(ie. "Needless to say") is mind numbing, and the overall flow of the aforementioned spiel, not to mention the subject matter, is painful to read at best.

I doubt you will take heed to this advice, but if you do actually have an adaptive learning circuit in that head of yours, I'd urge you to put it to good use.

I'll expect to see the revised draft on my desk by next Monday. In fact, just toss it in the can. I have every confidence that it won't be an improvement.

Not to worry, I'm sure there are plenty of grammatically challenged, white man afro-equipped, deficient geeks in the industry.
