Monica Lewinsky had some kind words for an HBO Max intern after they had a rough day at work.

On Friday, a strange email was mistakenly sent to HBO Max subscribers with the subject line "Integration Test Email #1." The body of the email only read: "This template is used by integration tests only."

The streamer was quick to apologize for the email on Twitter and confirm that, "yes, it was the intern."

"No, really," the statement continued. "And we’re helping them through it."

Monica Lewinsky, famous for once being a White House intern during Bill Clinton's tenure in the Oval Office, also took to Twitter to wish the intern well.

"dear intern: it gets better," she wrote alongside a red heart emoji.

In reference to the now-iconic photo of herself donning a beret while standing next to Clinton, she added: "ps. don’t wear a beret for awhile, k?"

Lewinsky, 47, isn't the only one to have had fun with the snafu.
