1. Interoffice Email

Subject: No More Cake

This e-mail is to inform you that the companies will no longer be buying cakes for employee’s birthdays. It has simply become too expensive for the company to buy that many cakes every single year.

I would like to remind everyone, before you start sending out angry email replies, that our country has been I an economic downturn and we are still recovering from that. Look at the bigger picture and try to appreciate the fact that you all still have jobs.

Thanks.

2. Negative Message to a client Subject: Credit Refusal

Dear Angelina Jolie,

No, you can’t have a Hawk credit card to purchase the furniture you’d like - at least not now. Get your finances in order and try again later.

Fortunately for you, there’s an alternative. Put what you want on layaway. This will allow you to have the furniture held and for you to exercise self-discipline by paying a bit each week or month. Thanks for the inquiry and we hope you enjoy your furniture.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Aniston

3. Negative Message to Superior:

Subject: I Quit Hi Questlove,

I’ve decided that I do not want to work for you any longer. The hours are too long and I have to manage all of Jimmy and Susie’s work along with mine because they are lazy. I’ve already accepted a new offer at the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Also, you don’t pay me enough. I’ll need a recommendation for my new position. Keep in mind how I kept everyone afloat here and how hard I’ve worked when you speak to my new supervisor.

Sincerely,

Lindsey Lohan

Subject: Birthday celebration changes

We value our employees and employee birthdays are the ones which should be celebrated with most importance. Our organization has always tried to celebrate the employee birthdays without calculating the expense in our good times. This email is to inform you regarding the changes in the method of birthday celebration.

It is high time that we should avoid using cakes in birthday celebrations because company is going through tough financial situation due to the economic downturn in the country’s economy. In the current situation, buying cakes for such a huge workforce have become unaffordable for the company. Many companies have taken decision to lay off the employees to overcome the crisis. But we value our employees and we are trying to take some controls over the expense rather than terminating the employees. Avoiding cakes in birthday celebration is a part of the control measures.

Employees have always supported us in all the management decisions and we expect the same support in overcoming this crisis also. We may restore the practice of buying cakes in future once we financially improve.

Subject: Alternative Suggestion for Furniture Purchase

Dear Angelina Jolie,

We are glad to know that you have shown interest in purchasing our furniture. We value our customers and are always looking forward to provide the best service. This email is regarding your request to purchase the furniture through credit card.

We would like to inform that your credit history is not sufficient to make the furniture purchase through the credit card you own. The finances should be managed properly for making credit card payment and hence we should try another method for payment. You can try the method of layaway which does not consider the buyer’s credit history. The method would allow you to reserve the furniture and complete the payment in part each week or month.

Please reply on your interest to use the layaway method. We look forward to serve you better and expect continued cooperation.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Aniston

I have always tried to support the team and hope you would provide a positive feedback regarding me while speaking to my new supervisor.
