What not to write

Keep public workplace messages warm, specific, and low-risk. Avoid jokes or assumptions that could feel personal in Slack, email, or a group card.

  • Do not joke about age, salary, layoffs, performance, politics, religion, health, personal life, alcohol, or appearance.
  • Do not imply the person is lucky to still have a job.
  • Do not make the message so personal that it feels uncomfortable in a workplace channel.
  • Do not use a milestone year unless you are sure it is accurate.
