I happen to work at a Software company and got this email titled.. "Important New Virus Update" which would be a totally acceptable title to an email in my company.
Anyway.. here it is.. I was laughing so hard.
There is a new virus . The code name is WORK. If you receive WORK from your colleagues, your boss, via e-mail, or from anyone else, do not touch it under any circumstances. This virus wipes out your private life completely.
If you should happen to come in contact with this virus, take two friends and go straight to the nearest bar. Order drinks immediately and after three rounds, you will find that WORK has been completely deleted from your system.
Forward this virus warning immediately to at least five friends. Should you realize you do not have five friends, this means you are already infected by this virus and WORK already controls your life. If this is the case, go to the bar and stay until you make at least five friends.
I think I have five friends, but am not entirely positive so I'm headed for the bar anyway.....it never hurts to be safe.
