[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter had her first job at the age of 14 and needed to interact with her supervisors via email. At that time, we figured out that she doesn’t know how to write emails properly, and I trained her. For a couple of years, she asked me to look at the drafts of her emails for supervisors and teachers, and I provided comments. When she started college, she called me one day and thanked for teaching her how to write emails because she realized how many college students (her friends) don’t know how to do so, and she was teaching them.

This sort of work communication doesn't happen so much in service jobs though....[/quote]
DD typically exchanged emails about her work schedule. Since it was a part time job, they sometimes asked to work additional hours or she had to ask to reschedule or take a day off because of some tournaments or school events. It just helped to understand that she indeed had no idea regarding a typical structure of the email and how professional and concise it’s supposed to be.[/quote]
