A milder story than some here:

Someone had accidentally sent an email to the whole company of 44,000 or so employees. Cue a bunch of emails -replying all- asking why they were receiving the email… followed by another wave of emails asking people to stop replying all.

Was a great popcorn moment, and made me laugh every time a new email came in.

We had this one at a place I worked, except it was a very large company and the chain started crashing servers.

I think we work for the same company...

Quite possibly but gotta keep the internet life separate from real
