Random gratitude
Jul. 26th, 2020 11:18 amOne thing about my work that I never expected, and I'm really grateful for, is that it got me used to sending formal emails.
A lot of what I do involves asking people questions about nitpicky paperwork details, or requesting revisions of work that was filled out incorrectly, or sending people copies of things. So, I've managed to get pretty good at sending clear, concise, and brief notes, without stumbling over anxiety. This used to be so difficult for me, but now it's much less difficult.
It's been a lifesaver recently.
Unfortunately, it doesn't completely transfer to informal/non-business communication, but considering that's a lower priority for me, I'm okay with that.
