[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this is a bad sentence: "here are the revisions to the document we talked about yesterday.” Say, "Attached are the revisions to the XYD document regarding ABC that we discussed yesterday afternoon." Then add the necessary action: "Please make edits" if that is her job. Or "Please let me know if you have any questions" Or "Please let me know if you accept the changes and I will send the final product."[/quote] You don't need to say "yesterday afternoon". That doesn't matter and people with low confidence will take this as, right or wrong, "we just discussed this you idiot". And drop the "Please". "Please" signifies a request. You aren't requesting, you are instructing. Switch to bullet points with short, clear, direct instructions, nothing else.[/quote]
