Can I just say as someone interning at Microsoft that this isn't much of an issue. This was an INTERNAL email sent by a recruiter we know to the local bay area interns. She was making a joke and none of us were offended or bothered. This seems to have caught on as viral because people think it is a public email and society as a whole has a general disdain for us young people.

Does not look like INTERNAL when it is sent to 'bay area interns'.

it is sent to Bay Area Microsoft interns :) does that make sense to you? as opposed to the majority that are in Redmond. not sure why that doesn't make sense to you?

Regarding the cringiness. The mail should have started with 'fam', not 'bae'. 'bae' is babe and definitely unacceptable, either to men and women!
