Emails, a Trap for the unwary

> New motto for emails should be, "think before you send."
> Emails can be misinterpreted and misunderstanding quite often.
> Why?? When communicating with people the reciever gets 38% from the tone of voice used, 55% of the body language and only 7% of this are the owrds. Frightning!
> Nina Sunday, "without the benefit of body language and the tone of voice...perfectly good communication can seem terse or even nasty. You may think its brief but the recipent maybe see this differently."
> At work emails sshould be much more formal than chit chatting to friends
>"Less is more", when at work dont overfil inboxes with funny jokes or pictures save it for family and friends.
> If a disagreement arises go and talk to the person face to face not over emails.
>Sloppy grammer is a no no. Although emails are quick they should be kept professional.
> If emails are not followed corrrectly at work or kept professinal consequences such as, losing your job, costing you and your boss money and exposing yourself to criminal charges can appear.
> A thoughtless email can mean serious problems when it comes to certain material. For example, sexually explict jokes or even uploading pornagraphic pictures etc. BIG NO's!!!
> "A Company has a right to expect employees not to bring their company into disrepute even outside work."
