Work email dumbassery.

Girl on my team reaches out to a subject matter expert (SME) looking for some information. SME refers her to me and another guy on our team not realizing we're all 3 on the same team. The other guy on our team attempts to find the information and can't, so he reaches out to another contact in our department with deep knowledge of the issue at hand. That contact replies that he doesn't have the information needed but is CC'ing the original SME to see if he can assist. So now we've come full ****ing circle.

I've set up Outlook to direct all future emails with that subject line straight to the trash so I'll never see them.
