At work, what is the worst case of email bullying you've come across

Question

Only one answer? I was really hoping that there might be some people out there who could share some real experiences. I definitely don't agree with Ooh Er M so I'd hate to have to award a Best Answer by default. Those who gave the thumbs down, what is your view?

Answer 1

I've never seen email bullying but I've had some pretty rude emails. Since they only happened once I can't count it as bullying.

Answer 2

A couple of days ago i replied to someone with a mental health problem and the filth that came back in e-mail was disgusting - did i stop it right there - no! I damned well didn't, the nasty little creature got far more than he bargained for - it'll be a long time before anyone else takes advantage of my good nature! By the way, as an retired personnel director, i did have training in mental health assesment and this was within my previous remit for advice or i would never have done it!

Answer 3

there is no such thing.  Anyone who gets upset about some e-mail is a bloody jessie
