    Not really, I do enjoy reading Nigerian's heartwrenching stories of childhood misfortune and their need for my money.

    Send, no. I know what's being sent.

    Recieve, yes. But then I am in prison and receiving is never good.:eek:

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Ever send a txt only to realise while its sending that you've said something wrong and you're hitting cancel like a b*stard! It never cancels!!!

    Its only a matter of pressing a button to get rid of crap. Hardly brainsurgery. DOH!

    Yes sometimes. It depends on what i'm expecting, like a job application for example. I have a decision due next Thursday, so I will be giddy/dreading opening my mailbox then.

    Its much the same as when i was in uni, getting the email to tell us the results are out... and the thoughts of the one bad exam you did.

    In my last job the head of admin used to constantly send round emails about keeping the canteen and our desks tidy among other things. Oh how we used to bitch and moan when her name was beside an unopened envelope. It often found its way straight to trash without being read, as opening it would land you with a job you didn't want or have time to do. You could hear the collective groan in the office when they were sent out!

    Oh and Outlook has a handy feature that allows you to recall a sent message. Very useful for those ill thought out angry emails!

    Did you forget to send a memo to all or are you dreading receiving a memo...

    I prefer laughing at it myself.

    Or the time I accidentally sent a text where I was talking about someone and sent it to that person! Luckily it was nothing bad but still slightly embarrassing. :o

    You're going to find life pretty hard, aren't you.

    Well last night in the small hours I sent a text that at the time seemed like a good idea but now that I am sober I can see it was not the smartest thing I have done

    There should be an abort text button.
