    1. Subject: Subject should sum up the content


    2. No opening greetings.
    3. No opening line to set the conversation.
    4. Accusatory tone. Such conversations should not happen over email, rather a face to face
    confrontation would be better.
    5. Capitalization missing—“ it is very highly”, “ pay soon or you will”
    6. Unnecessary capitalizations “PAYING”, “PENALTIES”, “Actions”
    7. Grammatically incorrect sentences “and let me know why you thief the mugs. ”
    8. Closing greeting missing.
    9. Your manager sounds rude
    10. Redundant word use “very highly extremely disturbing to me ”
