Suppose you're in a rush, feeling tired, not paying attention to your screen, and you send an email that could get you in trouble.
In seconds after you've clicked "send", you realize it in horrors and burn with shame.
Here are four common email accidents, and how to make it right.
Clicking "send" too soon
Don't waste your time trying to find out if the receivers has read it yet. Write another email as quickly as you can and send it with a brief title explaining that this is the correct version(版本)
Writing the wrong name
The sooner you notice, the better. Act quickly and briefly, saying sorry for your mistake. Don't take it too lightly, as you may offend(冒犯)people, especially if your mistake suggests a misunderstanding of their culture(i. e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names).
Clicking "reply all" by accident
You accidentally let the whole company know what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner, or what holiday you'd like to take. In this instance, the best way is to send a quick, light—hearted apology(道歉). But it can quickly rise to something worse, when everyone starts hitting "reply all" to join in a long and unpleasant conversation. In this case, step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down.
Sending an offensive message to its subject
The most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger(愤怒). You write an unkind message about someone, planning to send it to a friend, but accidentally send it to the person you're discussing. In that case, ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry. Explain your frustrations(沮丧)calmly and smartly—see it as a chance to clear up any difficulties you may have with this person.
