Corrective Email to Staff
Analyze the following email message for content, formatting, and email practices. Revise the message.
TO: $\quad$ Staff
SUBJECT: Changes It has come to my attention that some of you apparently do not have enough work to keep you busy. In the past six months since I assumed the position as your boss, I have observed many of you playing computer games, making personal phone calls, and spending far too much time in personal conversations with each other. We have far too much work in this department for all of you to waste time like this.
Effective immediately, the following changes will be enforced: 1)No personal use of the computer will be tolerated. 2)No personal phone calls unless emergency. 3)Conversations must be limited to break time and lunchtime, in the lunchroom only.
I expect your cooperation. Thank you.
Just a final reminder that we will have a staff meeting tomorrow at 3 p.m.
