    Allow me to be the first person in this thread to act the scold and say I wish we didn't make things like this news.

    These are not public figures, this is harmless and it could have happened to any of us.

    This is so painfully banal--in part of course due to the short, neutral email text. But these people need to be fired and go live out their dull little fantasy.

    I love how they briefly integrate work related stuff with the "let's fuck" conversation. That's multi-tasking.

    Why on earth would you use work email for this exchange?? Are they trying to add to that 10.2% unemployment rate? #thewaywelivenow

    This happen to me once at a law firm where I worked!! I mean, I didn't send the email, I got an email full of foul, graphic sex talk telling his lady love what they would be doing, hopefully, that evening. (The lady friend and I had the same last name, except she had an initial before her last name, which, I guess he forgot to add. HA!!)

    I wrote back that "Sorry, wrong email address" with a cc to the Managing Partner. He was fired at the end of the day, I think, because of the nasty language, not because of the affair, since the woman wasn't fired. She resigned later after everybody in the office knew what had happen.

    I know I didn't really have to send a copy to their boss but I felt like doing it and was happy I did. #thewaywelivenow

    @mslewis: I can't believe that you caused a guy to LOSE HIS JOB over accidentally sending a graphic e-mail to you. What do you care if he and his girlfriend send such e-mails to each other? So they have a different moral code than you do. So what? EVERYONE has skeletons, my dear, and pray that yours don't fall out as publicly as you caused his to.

    @mslewis: Sure, these folks exercised extremely poor judgment to use work emails for that communication, but your reaction was pretty harsh.

    You sound very judgmental. I might have guessed you were young and just starting out in your career when this happened. However, since you justify this by touting your morals, your age was probably irrelevant. Whether 23 or 43, your response would likely have been the same.

    You should hope that you're never in the position to need help from co-workers to correct a professional mistake. We all make them. With your attitude, you won't have many sympathetic takers. #thewaywelivenow

    @OrneryBabe: Oh, please!! As I said, this happen MANY YEARS AGO!!! Nobody hated me because of what I did; in fact, I was praised because this shit should not happen in a professional office. As mentioned before, what if the fool had accidentially sent that email (or a subsequent on) OUTSIDE the office? What would have happen? What would our clients have thought of us?

    As far as needing help from my co-workers, believe me, I have made many a mistake in my career and my co-workers, who admire and like me because I am always a professional, have been nothing but helpful and wonderful; as I have been to them. So, get off your high horse. Life is difficult and, if you are smart, you won't make your own life more difficult than it has to be. Keep your love life and your smut life to yourself. Don't broadcast it over email. The fool deserved what he got and he would have gotten fired sooner or later with or without any input from me. #thewaywelivenow

    @marciax3: I'm intrigued, what's "schaudfignugen"? Is it like, "Schadenfreude spurred on by sexytimes email exchanges that hit the InterNerds due to silliness of parties involved"?

    I feel bad for the innocent kid too. Luckily, he seems quite young and is hopefully still oblivious to the fuckery that unfolds in the world of adults. Also, given the attention span of the web, this will blow over before you know it. He'll be OK. #thewaywelivenow
