I think it can be good for all of us to recognize when it is time to slow down.
One of my bonehead moments was when I was p**sed about the message being sent in an e-mail. I responded to all. My message was accurate but a little inappropriate. I am in the military and thought I was sending it back to my Med Group Commander, Squadron Commander, flight commander and others within that chain of command. I missed an e-mail group link inside the to box. I ended up getting out of office replies to people I did not know. The group included the Command Surgeon General and all Med Group Commanders, Squadron Commanders and flight commanders within my career field. Luckily I wasn’t too inappropriate but did need to send out an apology.
I think that all of us can become too offended, too quickly and respond inappropriately. I saw some people on social media calling for people to write negative reviews about his employer. Potentially injuring multiple innocent families and their income, based on one bone head.
I guess my point is we should think some before we post and also take a breath before we decide to respond too quickly. I know I need to do this just like everyone else, because I am far from perfect on this.
