Ones Mind Broadens...
In the BoFH game if it previously possessed any tendency to narrowness.
In the days of yore when quite small business units/departments ran email in house and before spam filtering was a SaaS, dealing with bounces and the borderline items in the spam trap raised either one or both eyebrows on numerous occasions. Certainly enough material for a few Jackie Collins titles but perhaps a bit too hot.
I suppose from a general disinterest in the foibles and failings of ones fellows‡, one generally just forgets the material or thinks of it as a work of fiction disconnected from real people.
One day during smoko a relatively senior but slightly wicked staff member mentioned that in a recent staff meeting he had stated that the BoFH actually had to read each email which to his malevolent delight produced considerable and general consternation.
I of course just burst out laughing - as if I had time to even read my own email. Still some of the more catty staff were more solicitous thereafter. ;)
Running squid proxies, more particularly the logging thereof before https became de rigueur revealed some rather "interesting" corners† of the internet and more interestingly those that sought out those corners. Became a lot more particular in general about what I did not log. :)
‡ not restricted to chaps, Women usually have rather more vivid imaginations and better language skills.
† long before xxx sites were much of a thing, one about which I was curious concerned numerous downloads from a Magyar ,hu site. "Eye opening" then, rather bland now.
