How I Communicate

        On a daily basis we all communicate in many different ways. Anything from a text message, to an email or expense report. These are just a few ways I communicate through writing. My work requires me to be able to communicate with others around me in a professional manner. I must write, and respond to emails indicating the sales and profitability of my location on a weekly basis. When redirecting bad behavior and praising good behavior in my employees, I must be able to document these encounters in a professional way. I often give important information on our services and pricing to our customers.

        Writing is most definitely a part of my day to day life. Without the skills I have, and will learn, I would not be understood quite as clearly. The level of respect I receive from others in the workplace would not be as high. The information in my reports would not be valued. On a personal level, I would be embarrassed to have others witness poor writing and grammar with my name on it. Even in a silly text message or social media post.
