[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also a teacher and the comment is not appropriate. It's entirely appropriate to point out to a child that his/her work is too messy. I've done it many times. This was not the way to do it. It's not hard to write, "Your handwriting on this worksheet was very messy. It was very difficult for me to grade. Next time, please work on writing more neatly!" Put yourself in the child's shoes. [b]Would you want your boss to write you a note with that tone? [/b] I wouldn't. Critical feedback is necessary-- but do it respectfully.[/quote] Exactly what I was thinking. Could you imagine this from a managing partner to a newly hired junior associate? Time to circulate the resume could be right around the corner.[/quote] You must not be (and have never been) either a managing partner or a newly hired junior associate. [/quote]
