I sent emails for 8 months to a person named Chris that started “Hi Chairs,” and they never noticed.
I had a job for about a year, where among other things I was making the requests to our physical document storage supplier. They are amazingly incompetent. And one thing they did is, early on, they were calling me David, while my first name is Daniel. I didn’t say anything, wanting to note how long before they’d realize their mistake. They never did.
Of course, my name is the signature of all my emails.
I have a chain of email with mechanical engineers, subject: “welded butt plug”
We’re talking about a butt welded plug. At this point I think nobody wants to be the one to change the subject.
Had to read it twice to understand why it was here.
I would just assume it was bad autocorrect.
Hmm, I don’t do any intro if I remotely know the person. My emails look like this:
Subject: General topic + call to action
Brief introduction to problem, ideally one sentence. A call to action, like getting some info or whatever.
Extra details if needed, which is pretty rare. Two to three sentences max.
Thanks,
my name
relevant other info like title
No intro, that’s available in the email header. Just don’t put in filler…
What’s the change? Looks standard to me.
