There's a lot of advice out there about how to write work emails. But what are some things you should never do?
1. Send When You're Angry
Even though it can be tempting, it's not often a good idea to send an email when you're angry with someone or something at work. Taking a short break before typing will help you avoid saying anything you might regret later.
2. Forget to Say "Hello"
Even if you're sending a short message, the reader might think the email is rude if you don't greet them and end the message politely.
3. Mark as Urgent When It Can Wait
When you want an answer quickly, you might think marking an email as "urgent" will get people to reply sooner. But marking them as such too often will make it hard for people to know which emails really are urgent.
4. Gossip During Work
While gossiping may not always be a bad thing — 44% of participants said it helped relieve work-related stress — it's best to keep it out of your emails.
