Scenario 1:
you are the head of human resources at tech4u, a company that produces computer software for small businesses. you have been assigned the task of informing employees of tech4u that annual year-end bonuses will not be distributed because of an unexpected downturn in company profits. this is the first time the bonus program will not be distributed in the history of the company.
recognizing that the employees know that business has been bad, you send the following e-mail:
“due to low profits, there will be no annual year-end bonus this year. we hope to have a better year next year. have a happy holiday.”
how would i write this?
