Can anyone tell me the guidelines for a professional email?

Question

I would like to get the guidelines of professional emails, my sponsor is asking me to send him professional emails and i don't know how to.

Answer 1

This is an example of a professional email that was sent within my place of business. The company was so thrilled with his professionalism, that the individual was promoted. Certain portions of this email have been blanked out for obvious reasons:

Will someone please tell me who I have to blow to get Work orders looked at? I submitted this last Wednesday (to ** *****) and it hasn’t gotten any updates, approvals, or night work emails describing why. I’ve changed the assignment group to ** **** ****** in hopes that it will now get some attention.



What am I doing wrong here? Someone please clue me in. I have about a 50% success rate on getting work orders done since we’ve gone to ******* ****** and it’s really starting to affect production."


I kid you not, this is the type of professionalism that goes on in a major corporation.

Answer 2
