As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday we know that the urge to send the
"HAPPY THANKSGIVING 🦃"
email becomes overwhelming to you, dear reader, and several thousands others who also have our email address.
The result is that on a day we should not be thinking of work, our email inbox becomes flooded with emails from lawyers and law firms we barely remember, parroting all the nice feelings and thoughts about how much we all have to be thankful for.
But let's be real.
The real reason Dewey Chetum and Howe sends that HAPPY THANKSGIVING EMAIL with all the pablum about taking a moment to reflect on all we have to be thankful for, is not because they really mean it. What they want is for the recipient to say "wow what a nice bunch of lawyers, I think I'll send them all my PIP accident cases in 2025."
Rest assured, as far as Rumpole goes, NO ONE who sends us a HAPPY THANSGIVING email will ever get a referral from us. In fact, let's start a
BOYCOTT ALL WHO SEND HOLIDAY EMAILS campaign.
They do not care about Easter, or Thanksgiving, or Kawanza, or Shavout, or Christmas. It is just a not-so-subtle stupid bit of marketing which, as to us, makes us see RED.
So stop it. Don't send that stupid email full of nonsense- which we know you didn't send anyway, but corralled some hapless intern in your office and made them send out the email bomb to every address in your firm's email address book.
Send us offending email and we warn you now that we may publicly call you out on it on our blog and ask you to defend your holiday spam.
Eat your turkey. Bet against the Giants. And enjoy the day off. And .... and we mean this ...
DO NOT SEND THAT EMAIL
Happy Thanksgiving, etc. 🦃
