    Wallstreetbets has ruined even the regular best regards, and I only use regards now as a subtle insult in professional email signatures now.

    Yep, happened to me. But instead of “best regards”, i usually end with simple “regards” which may have made it worse. I immediately followed up with an email profusely apologizing.

    I finished an email with “Breast regards” once. I’m very glad someone pointed that out :D

    Friendly reminder that ‘nugget’ is only two minor typos from being quite offensive.

    I once sent an email to the President of Engineering to justify tuition reimbursement.

    I told him that my ASS (should have been AAS) has been extremely beneficial to both the company and myself and I would like to take the next step and get my BSME.

    He never responded.

    Probably should have slowed down.

      For important emails I always draft the message before adding the recipient’s email address. Then, I review it before finally adding in the email and hitting send.

    When I worked at a lab there was a student with the last name Jark. Autocorrect felt it should be jerk. Luckily it effected everyone so he took it in stride.

    I got an advanced certificate from the City University of New York (CUNY). I had to write several work emails and fill out several forms to get my workplace to pay for it. The letter Y is next to the letter T on the keyboard. I think you can see where this is going.

      Because it’s not part of my signature?

      It doesn’t mean much but I actually have had people notice that I manually type mine because I use different ones with different people / depending on the situation, so it feels like I actually mean them

      I leave that part blank. Some people don’t deserve the best regards.

    I actually read that 2 or 3 times wondering why T and G were circled, wondering what was the issue here….then I finally noticed… maybe whomever the email was sent never even noticed!

    Maybe you type that word too much. Bad habit

    Always write correspondence into either notepad or an email body without a filled in address.
