Do you do this?

I hope not!

So many people do this. I think it's just a silly trend. Friends, work colleagues especially.

here are some gems I've received recently.....



"See you at 1 pm. Meeting in Rm 203

S"


"Take care and see you tomorrow!

B xx"


"What time will you arrive?

D"

i don't mind that really.

in the dance music industry you're an outsider if you don't sign off with "best"....!

I can't stand people who do things like that.

Theres a guy in my work who includes the letters HNC (with distinction) after his name, totally seriously as well.

so he did only one year at uni? hardly anything to brag about!

Its a College qualification. HNC for 1 year courses, HND for 2 year courses. When I went to Uni after getting my HND I could have gone into 3rd year, but I decided to go into 2nd as there was more Physics stuff involved than what I was used to but I ended up getting punted anyway.

but yeah, the reason I mentioned it, its like, putting HNC after your name is just asking for abuse :lol:

To add "(with distinction)" on the end just tops it off. Poor guy. He's a nice fella too, I just don't think anyone has the heart to mention it.

I don't mind people doing that in emails if it's people I know and email regularly throughout the day, I often sign emails to close colleagues "HH" and they do the same, but I hate it when people use text-style language in emails when you don't know them and they are asking something serious, it's unprofessional...as for putting HND, what a looser it's hardly a huge educational achievement.

Nah... still dont' like it, particularly in emails! ;)

I just wonder if it's a trend, because no one used to do it... then it seems everyone does it.

Ack!!

Imagine if Tiesto signed his e-mails as...

" Tiesto - Dj "

or "love always
T - Dj"

I can't stand it. Especially when its someone you know in real life. It makes it that more retarded. Its like "man I know who its from, why sign your name?"

And worst of all, why sign it like some ****ing poorly made 90's ****ing american teenage Tv show? When I see people sign it like that, I imagine the cast of Full House doing **** like that ... But god I love the theme song :D

Everyone at my work does it, I have never seen it before so the first few days at work it threw me a bit, i.e.

Sam is off Sick,

Thanks,

Or the man I work for he sends me this quite a lot:

PPO
