Can anyone give me a 'Fuck you, Neil'?

[RamsaySnowsSausage]

I sent some info out on Monday to some shareholders in my job. I sent an update to the information out today.

A Neil, who I have never had any interaction with, but who is a senior shareholder replied...

Thanks Ramsay, would have been good to know that on Monday and everyone agrees.

He copied in everone. It's more than my job is worth to respond...but a FU would be much appreciated.

And share any work frustrations...I'll be on your side.

Can't see why a polite reply explaining the info wasn't available at the time of first email should cause trouble for you.
You are not blaming this Neil. Only politely responding.
At times one has to clarify a situation.
I don't think I would like to be a doormat and not respond.

My favourite response to rubbish like this is the fully loaded ‘Thanks Neil’.

Everyone respects that more than some nitpicking goady loser trying to make others look bad.

Dear Shareholders.

In light of Neil's email I feel it is important to clarify the situation. Unfortunately, the additional information you received on ... was not available when the original email was sent on Monday. Please be reassured that the additional information was sent to you as soon as it was received. I can only apologise that this wasn't clear in the email update, and for any confusion or upset this may have caused.

One of my colleagues sometimes uses Regards instead of Kind Regards or Best Regards.

I think we all know she means “fuck the fuck OFF” when she writes that 😀

I always have “Oh Neil, Neil, orange peel!” in mind when I meet a Neil. Loved The Young Ones as a teen. 😃

Well he sounds like a right twat.

If it’s no blame culture why is he blaming you 😃,
send him back Soz Neal 😂

Wasn’t it the case that the information was available to OPs organisation but not necessarily communicated to OP.

Thanks for your feedback Neil.
I’ll be certain to share this with the team responsible for the timing of the communications and hopefully we can get information out quicker in future

I like the spelling his name wrong in reply.
Don't apologise.
State that the new info only came to light (today) so was forwarded on when you were made aware of it.
Sign off with 'Regards.'

It’s perfect, but I’d sign it off, “Regards”.

Nothing shows barely-suppressed rage like dropping the “Kind”.

I've only met good Neils.

<Shrug>

This one ...not so much.

I honestly can't understand how several posters are advising the OP to make sarky remarks in her response or worst still deliberately spell his name wrong. The only thing that'll gain is making OP look unobservant/ daft.

Factual, brief, non inflammatory response is the professional way.

Ummmm… because the nature of the title is clear that she isn’t particularly seeking advice in handling it, but solidarity and a bit of a laugh. Otherwise the thread would be called “How should I reply to this work email?” or similar

I went out with a Neil once. He was a sarcastic, know it all arse as well.

I used to go out with a Neil.

He was a cunt.

They're all cunts.

Fair point :-)

I’d 100% respond ‘to all’ saying .. ‘oh I’m sorry you missed my original email
which was sent out on Monday. !

Christ! Look or employment elsewhere

Let me get my crystal ball, Neil, you twat.

On another note my dad is a Neil and I adore him. He’s ace. So there are some decent Neil’s out there 😁

The Neil I knew at primary school is now a bigwig. He used to administer quick vicious kicks under the table in the lunch canteen and would beat up his younger sister. He was butter wouldn’t melt to adults though. Bet it’s the same one if he’s early 50s.

Fuck you neeel...fuck off to the far side of fuckery and then fuck off a bit more

And Another thing..fuck wucky neeel
Not blessed with the gift of clarevoyense..I was unable to tell you until today..

Good luck tomorrow 😆
