Would this annoy you?

A week ago I sent out a document to many people. Today I got a question back on it. Not annoying yet, but wait… One of the people I'd sent the document to had forwarded it on to a couple of others. One of them had gone back to him with a question. Instead of asking me that question, he then forwarded it to four of the people on the original list. Luckily one of them has had the intelligence to email me the question, and I can answer it. Sadly this has taken a week. One phone call and it could have been done in a day.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm so far out of the loop that the only reason I can see it is because I'm looking at it from the other side. Bridget Jones has a word for this behaviour, but I can't repeat it here as this website is only graded PG!
