worst email you've ever seen?

I was warned early in my career about being careful what you put down in text.
There were a few gems I still remember:

- Peter Chung, Carlyle Korea's career-ending email


- Lucy Gao's 'iron lady' birthday invitation

You guys got any cringe-worthy email stories?

 

Would actually think those are the best emails I've ever seen, especially the Peter Chung one. The Carlyle folk were clearly just jealous

 

As long as you are not incredibly stupid and/or naive, the chances of your career coming to an end due to inappropriate content in an email, would be very low. With that said, there is a much higher probability that poorly constructed emails will have a negative impact on your career.
