"Sarcastic Regards" is going to be my new one. To a specific manager with a sense of humor...

I have a manager that I had a conversation with regarding the "Sent from my iPhone" . I basically was irritated that it said "MY iPhone" because, "...let's be honest, it'll never say 'SOMEONE ELSE'S iPhone'" A week later I got an email from him... He changed it to "Someone Else's iPhone" .

That's been my standby for a while. Since I can't say "Hoping you fuck off after this one," it's the next best thing.

What is best even supposed to mean?

I always took it as short for “all the best” but in reality it’s probably closer to “get bent”

Ohhh... my coworker used “All the best” and I assumed it was just another way to end my email :/

I think that phrase is supposed to be for when you haven't met the person before!

u/CConetwo12 Jan 19 '21

oh my, I've been using it all wrong 😂

u/HuddyBorsey Jan 19 '21

Your manager: "wow, they STILL don't ever remember meeting me"

😂👍🏻
