AI DRAMA/OFFICE MELTDOWN/1 MIN READ

MY MANAGER ASKED AI TO WRITE A REJECTION EMAIL THEN SENT THE WRONG VERSION

the applicant received a message congratulating them on joining a company that didn't hire them

i was helping coordinate interviews when my manager generated several email templates for candidates. one welcomed successful applicants and one politely declined

he clicked the wrong file and sent a glowing offer-style message to someone we'd already decided not to hire. the applicant immediately began asking about onboarding and start dates

we had to call and explain the mistake honestly instead of sending another vague automated email. it was embarrassing and unfair to someone who had invested time in the process

our team introduced a review step for sensitive messages. i now call that checklist 'the expensive lesson in clicking the right attachment'
