Title: That moment when you send the wrong email & can't get it back!!
Post by: SjoDry on October 07, 2014, 01:23:06 PM
Okay everybody..here's your laugh for the day, week or month.

I must give you a little background first. My husband & I own a custom sign/graphics company. You have probably seen vehicles that drive around & have graphics/text all over them
advertising a business & such. In our industry we call those: Vehicle Wraps. Theoretically, we can "wrap" any surface if it is wrappable. Not long ago we were approached by a Funeral Director who wanted to see if we could wrap a casket to look like a Budweiser Beer Can? The funeral director's long time friend (Bucky) had always wanted this & asked if his friend could make it happen? The funeral director went to Anheuser Busch & got permission.

Our company was approached to do the wrap. And so..we did. It was certainly unusual and a first for us. However, this prompted me to create a brochure to send to Funeral Homes to offer our new casket/urn wraps just to test the waters and see if there is any interest.

So the OMG moment...A short while ago, I had just spoken to a member of my SIP (Sjoggies In Pittsburgh) group. I was telling her about the casket wraps & told her that I would send her my new brochure & a couple of pics of the Budweiser Casket Wrap (including one goofy one of my doing my Vana White pose next to the wrapped casket). I thought my friend's email was in my hsitory. I immediately hit what I thought was her email only to realize after it was gone... that it was sent to...are you ready for this:Dr. Frederick Vivino (world renown Sjogren's Doctor)...kill me now.

Of course I followed it up with a, please excuse my last email. I did tell him that I am Dr.Noaiseh's (my doc who trained under him) patient, though very embarrassed to admit that after having
sent him the email.

Is it the most embarrassing thing I have ever done? I am going to tell myself no just to make myself feel better & less horrified.

Someday I will laugh...just not today.

SjoEmbarrassed!

Oh Sjo!

Well - I'm laughing - but I can see how it could take you a while longer!

Put it down to brainfog!

Take care - Scottie  :)

I did indeed. Dr. Vivino replied, "No problem". That certainly taught me a lesson about double-checking my emails before I send them :-)
