Subject: strong words!

Honey,

Oh, what an mail it was! You made that person from Malta feel humiliated. See, your mail was strongly worded. You wanted to tell him something, you told it in a devastating manner!

I would not have written such an mail to anyone! See, you had told me you wanted to change and no one tells you what to do. Here is a suggestion. Can you write me an mail which contains the same message to the Malta person, but a more gentle mail, ok? Send me this. Let us see, ho you can write in a different way. A writer like you should be able to do it. There are times when we need to be tough, but not always, right? I am sure this Malta person will bite his tongue after reading your mail.

The promotion was announced by a mail to us and our range manager. I will not be given visiting cards and salary change, because I am too young to become a project leader by office rules. But functionally I will act as project leader. I haven't told my parents, I thought I will tell them when I go there.

But it seems, I may not be able to go this week. I have been nominated for some training, which is compulsory for all project leaders. It is training for assuring the quality of my group. If I could opt-out, I will do that.

I have developed our photos. I am a better photographer than you! Your photos have come out superb. Remember the photos we took in Heidelberg and in the train? They are too good! I will scan them and send them soon.

Sumit won't check his mail. So there is no point in sending him an mail. When I go to my home I will call his home and get his postal address.

And I have not yet received Jackie Chan's book! Why????

You are there now, right? The pain of menses. Hmmm...I have to fill my mind with you...

Love

Kamal
