I just quickly resend it with the correct CC and pretend the first one never happened. It helps me mentally.

Oh my god this is brilliant. What a power move. I'm honestly going to copy this model over into a few different sectors of life.

Hahaha! That's literally how my day went yesterday. Made every effort to avoid this colleague of mine even though we literally work 5 feet away from each other. Lol.

Oh well. I guess I'll be trying my luck again with the next email. Fingers crossed I don't forget about them again!

How do I forget every single time?? Today is the third time I forgot about it. Now I feel so sorry.

Thank heavens I finally remembered! I would feel so ashamed if I ever forgot to include them once again. Hahaha! I think I need to take some memory meds.

I seriously need to take some brain supplememts as well. Had my colleague confront me about forgetting to include them for the nth time.

The amount of embarassment I subject myself because of my brain's inability to retain simple information hahaha!

After how many times I've forgotten, they probably already think I'm doing it on purpose or something. I promise I'm not, my brain just fails me 90% of the time.

I'm personally taking this as a sign to take supplements because I am very much lacking in the memory department.

Just send another one with his email address finally on CC. I have done that before so I immediately sent another one.

Hahaha. I should take my ginkgo biloba supplements seriously. Sorry folks, my bad!

If my colleagues are here and reading this right now, I am so sorry. I will remember this everytime. Or maybe not. Hahaha

Oops! I feel so seen in this bowl. I really thought I am the only one who's forgetful. I see we are too many.

Yep, cue the 'sorry I forgot to CC you' forward as you slowly die of embarassment

I too am a forgetful one. I should really probably lock it in with muscle memory.

Need advice & perspectives: I got a verbal review from my manager saying he couldn’t see me as senior cuz I didn’t follow the design doc format he mandates from all designers.

Also the product I’m on has been in MVP stage, things move extremely fast and design decisions changed constantly. He’s not on my team.
