Waste of time to MT's. I think the supervisor should use more discretion in the use of company email. !

Had a mailbox full of jokes from supervior TODAY !

in the days of "bulletin board" for emails, when you could call the office and talk to a human who cared about you as a person, rather than a number, knew you by name and voice. Those were the good ole days with MQ.

So much has changed in the past year or two with MQ -- closing down offices and regionalizing offices, DQS used for switching MT's from one account to another, rather than letting us remain on the accounts of which we have become familiar, and which accounts we could make money on. The supes just can't leave us alone anymore since DQS -- STAT'ing jobs from one account to another account to us, slowing us down to read account specifics, instead of allowing us to remain on our familiar accounts so that WE CAN MAKE SOME MONEY AT THIS PROFESSION ! Pools are just not getting it anymore -- queue's have taken over! There is no way that one MQ MT can get the work types/horrible dictators report after report when we are working strictly from a pool !  DQS is great otherwise -- the MT-friendly software that it is in other ways !  But MQ management is not looking for MT-friendly anything anymore -- what stuffs their pockets fuller !

I agree that this is improper use of email, especially by our superiors !

My imail keeps telling me that I am 98% full, and need to delete messages without jokes being sent to fill up my mailbox, too. What would happen if all of us MQ MT's began sending out jokes via MQ COMPANY EMAIL. I don't think that would set well with MGMT ! We just don't have time to read jokes via company email. We are struggling to get in our lines in order to pay our light bills, etc.

Personally, I would prefer to only receive WORK-RELATED emails from my supervisor. I would prefer to read the jokes on my own time and of a subject of which I choose to read jokes about. It is just not what I want to do when I sit down to work -- read JOKES in emails from my supervisor.

This has been an issue before.  No exceptions.

Thank you.

their true feelings show.  I don't think the dumb-a$$ male is all that funny and I guess it's because most males I know are pretty smart so of course I wouldn't post "jokes" like the OP.  That's why I think OP did not really respect men and found humerous truth in the "joke."

Especially, after hearing them over and over again from people who think they're being "clever".  In addition, I don't know how many times people have told me to prove that I'm a real blonde.  Like they can't tell from my eyebrows.  Duh, really funny and so original.  I've never heard that one before.

We blondes do have to overcome the stereotype.  People think we're stupid or promiscuous just because we're blonde.  Scoff all you want to, but it's true.  No, we don't have it as tough as minorities do at all, but nobody ever takes us seriously either.  I'd give examples of real life discrimination and harrassment in the workplace, but why bother?  Everyone just thinks they're being funny or clever.
