Pressing 'ctrl c' and 'ctrl v' is easier right now

Well that and it made me chuckle.

On my school email you get a lot of 'all staff' emails, things that get sent to you that are supposed to affect the whole school. (Well sometimes people are just lazy and don't filter out the 95% of people that don't need to read it.)

This is one that I got tonight:

Hi,

There will be a migration of data for the Academic folder and the root folder "File_server" on 04 Apr (Wed) at start time 1230pm. The time taken to finish the migration takes approximately 3 hrs and therefore the server will be down. And, there will be some reboots of the server which is responsible for this migration happening in the morning between 10am-12pm. If you would like to work on some files, it is recommended to copy those files out before 10am in order to prevent the interruption caused by the reboots of the server in the morning.

This is to ensure that there will be enough space for users to save their work in the server.

Your co-operation is much appreciated. Thank you.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Best regards

The IT Department


'Reply all' emails are also very common. This one in response just made me laugh out loud.

I know I am an English teacher, but I have absolutely no idea what this means.
Can someone please explain?


Genius.
