Spelling Nazi

This was sitting in my inbox this morning. I was CC'd in because when the price list arrives, it is most likely my baby.

Hi Lizette, Hope u had great weekend

Pls advise? Sandy

Dear Manager (Sandy),

I would like to advise you on Email Etiquette.

Firstly, don't use abbreviations like 'u' or 'plz'. It isn't very professional. Type out the whole word so the reader knows what you are referring to, because not everybody is 'chat-speak' literate. Its also irritating. Save it for your personal messages.

Secondly, spell check is your friend. Use it. And if Spell Check can't help you, there are on-line dictionaries to help you with your spelling dilemma.

Finally, use the ENTER key. Reading flows better when you paragraph.

Regards,
Natasha
