Club E-mails
Mood:  irritated
Now Playing: "superxero1" by Linkin Park on "NoAlbum"
Topic: Random Rant
Do I send out messages about Math Club to people who don't care about Math Club? Yes. But they are Math majors so at least it's fucking relevant. I don't send out the e-mails to every math class. Not only would it be an huge hassle just to type all those up, but for most of 100-level classes (and there are a lot of them), the people in there aren't Math majors and therefore don't give a flying fuck what the Math Club is up to.

This one person from the Industrial Technology Club keeps e-mailing every IT class (all less than 20 of them) about doing things for Open House for the IT club. Plastics is a fucking general education class which means that at least half the people in the class don't give a damn about the IT Club and most certainitly don't want to help with Open House. So after like the third e-mail from this person I replied asking why I was getting the e-mails. She (at least I think it's a she) replied saying that they e-mail all the IT classes and that she can't just take one person off of her list. After receiving yet another e-mail from her, I again replied and suggested that she get a club account, gave a link for the form and make an alias of all the people who give a damn. Except I said it slightly nicer. But I did imply that her e-mails were spam to those in the plastics class for GE credit. I'm tempted to include her on the next couple Math Club e-mails just to give her a taste of her own medicine. What I should have said at the end was "If you are planning on responding, don't bother. I put a filter to just delete all of these irrelevant e-mails from you." I also should have brought up the fact that by e-mail just the classes, she's not necessarily reaching all the IT majors. I mean what if they're not taking an IT class this quarter? Then they would be "missing out" on all the IT Club dealings.

My point being that while we are both annoying people with all of our e-mails about club activities, at least I'm e-mailing relevant people. She could at least have the decency to do that.
