It's so if we're ever sued over anything then we've only got 6 months of history that we're liable for during discovery.

Lawyers figured out it was a nightmare going through 20+ years of emails, so the 'solution' was simply to just not keep records for very long.

Technically you can archive important emails, but they've made that harder and harder to do and it's not always like you know what's going to be important later, so it's really easy to not save something you should have.

Oh god, I recently had a conflict about this. Records people are like, "we hear you have a room full of records, they are marked as past retention policy we are coming to shred them, please make sure someone is available to give us access"

We have one admin left and she fucking rules. She's saved these from shredding before and she messages me panicked, saying they aren't listening to her that they are still required etc. I'm getting ready to literally fite someone and my boss is like, "let's just tell them we don't have them anymore 🤷 I don't feel like arguing with these people." He rules.
