All Staff All Day is a hilarious Tumblr blog that highlights the ridiculousness of the all-company email. Everyone has received one of these emails before; usually they involve a request or are a question. That being said, half the time (sometimes more than half) the requests are ridiculous and the questions posed shouldn't be asked to everyone who works in the company.
The anonymous workaholic behind All Staff All Day has fielded questions involving requests for 3D glasses and pleas for people to stop storing their dog food in the fridge. These companywide emails have been paired with cute/ridiculous pictures that make them seem even more inane. This blog proves that no one is alone when it comes to ridiculous all-company emails.
