i'm glad none of you indicated the use of a graphical signature.

it's a horribly annoying waste of bandwidth.

i like reading through threads like this and realizing how much memory loss i have about posts i have made on TWW

2/28/2011 6:39:58 PM

i usually say "thank you" or "sincerely" or it depends on the subject matter...could end with something else depending on what it is about.

for some reason i am really irrtated by people who sign it like this:

best,
katherine

i just don't like it at all. "best" really annoys me. strange, i know.

2/28/2011 8:55:03 PM

business, press enter a couple times then put Thanks, and all my contact info (it is auto populated, first thing I did when I got the account)

Generally I end an internal corporate email with

V/r,

(that's "Very respectfully,")

or

Thanks,

I change the tone depending on what's going on. When you're calling somebody out on doing something wrong/being wrong/being an idiot/god knows what the hell is going on, "V/r" comes quite in handy. I learned to use that while working at NNSY because of all the military types i was in regular contact with.

I try to avoid putting closings in my signature. For me, it just got too weird after seeing one too many emails where a manager chews someone out about impending crisis or is in a panic and the signature closes it with "Thanks!". Also, if I want to thank someone, I'll put it in the body of the email. Just feels cheap again seeing it used in so many signatures for emails that are clearly not thanking people.
