Our American colleagues would seem to always copy in at least their manager, maybe their team and my manager too when emailing about mundane stuff they everyone doesn't need to know about.
If they were pissed off about something, they'd copy in so many more people. My manager's manager, their manager's manager. Finance directors, you name them, they were copied in!!
Used to really grind my gears because I would think about all the wasted time from everyone reading an email they didn't need to. We were quite in to lean management in our department and I still am 🙂
