The insurance people are not a part of the company, so I'm not sure who would be offended.
replyI wouldn't be mean about it. I'm imagining adding a line to the email such as:
> (Yes, I know this is annoying, but it's required by our insurance company.)
What is the insurance company going to do, jack up our rates because we accurately stated what their policy was?
The problem is that this particular insurance company was picked by someone who does work in yours.
replyThis seems like a pretty awful place to work if my bosses have such fragile egos they can't handle me saying "our insurance requires us to do X". I'm not even really passing judgement on whether X is good or bad.
replyI'm not saying you're wrong, I've never worked in a company this large (except for a brief internship), or in IT specifically. But also, like, come on people, grow up.
