Small work issue, would you do this?

If they all know how she usually writes her e-mails, I might not have even prefaced it.

I wouldn't have prefaced it, but I would've put her name at the bottom so they knew it was coming from her.

I preface anything I deem crazy that they insist comes from my email.

I personally don't like it when people put words in my mouth and insist I sign it with my name. Even if I totally agreed with what she had to say, and it wasn't "crazy", I'd still struggle with it. I think you did the best you could given the parameters she set - that is, the preface.

she said to make sure it's specifically from me, meaning signed at the bottom. That is why I felt the need to preface it.

That seems kind of odd to me. I mean, wouldn't boss's name carry a lot more authority than yours?

Our admins regularly send emails signed with boss's name at the end, so it seems pretty normal to do that.

Exactly...so it was probably something that was crappy, crazy, micromanaging, whatever the case may be...and the boss didn't want to have to be the bad guy. I'd absolutely have prefaced it in that scenario. I'll send what you want, but if you're going to be crazy, I don't want people thinking I'm the crazy one.

Without knowing the content or the exact scenario, you probably did the right thing with the preface.
