They never learn do they.
I was forwarded this e-mail today. Did a bit of a google and aparently it's huge news (even a german site has translated). Way to set the women's movement back 40-odd years ladies. --------- <<heaps of FWD's deleted to protect those who feel honor-bound to distribute this.. not me though, only through fear of retribution>> Read from the bottom.... -----Original Message----- From: Bird, Melinda Sent: Thursday, 1 September 2005 10:23 AM To: Nugent, Katrina Subject: RE: Oh my God I'm laughing! happy relationship (you have been with so many guys), beautiful apartment (so what), brand new car (me too), high pay job (I earn more)....say plenty more.....I have five guys at the moment! haha. -----Original Message----- From: Nugent, Katrina Sent: Thursday, 1 September 2005 10:21 AM To: Bird, Melinda Subject: RE: Let's not get person "Miss Can't Keep A Boyfriend".

Yesterday I put my lunch in the fridge on Level 19 which included a packet of ham, some cheese slices and two slices of bread which was going to be for my lunch today. Over night it has gone missing and as I have no spare money to buy another lunch today, I would appreciate being reimbursed for it.

Hehe, no and apparently a spokesman from the company declined comment on whether the lunch was stolen.
Man I hope someone has the balls to put her lunch up on ebay. I don't want to risk my account, but I'll forward the ad around.

ok this is a week old already. it has been in the newspapers as well. it would also be good if the actual REAL transcripts were written instead of the mutilated versions here.
anyone with last weeks Herald Sun will know what im talking about. i will believe their version of the email anyday over one that has been forwarded and reworded 40000 times. |

Looks like we found the sandwich
I have larger pics of the two chicks involved and the blonde isn't bad.... I don't think it'd be too appropriate to post them up....

If that first reply from the blonde is what she actually said, then it's the brunette that has the problem.

I don't know why this got so much attention, or why its grounds for being fired. Chicks have b*tchy fights all the time and that's pretty tame in comparison to most.

I think the kept hitting reply to all, so apart from miss use of comapny email system, there is the whole slander aspect etc...
If it was 99% between them, then I think the company is rather petty.

If it was the brunette that lost her lunch I think I know why........She must've simply forgotten it was the tin of PAL on her desk. Mind you, if it's the blonde with a guy fetish I'll take my turn

I believe the firm was Allens Arthur Robinson. IMO the person fired should be the one who sent it off to his buddy at bank/legal firm/whatever!
Secretary high paying job ?? (apartment in sydney and a new car?!?) But ing about a ham sandwich?!? Something doesnt add up. PS Id hit it

Then there was what others added whilst forwarding on the email...
The reference that one of the secretary's slept with her own cousin. Yet that lawyer was not sacked... go figure.
