Interesting things end up in our inbox, but none as cavalier as the nonapology that Andy Wibbels, a Six Apart product manager, sent us. He acknowledges that he unintentionally spammed a number of blogs with a mass email promoting the company's new blog directory, but flips off criticism of the mail's impersonal tone on "one of our interns [who] was obviously mismedicated." I must be doing this intern thing wrong, because my boss has yet to offer me any drugs, let alone accuse me of being on them. Andy, here's a Management 101 tip: Be a mensch and own up to your mistakes. A good leader doesn't let shit roll downhill. Full email:
