Directions 1. Choose a topic below. Write an e-mail based on the topic you choose. 2. Complete the assignment in Microsoft Word. 3. Feel free to use a Word template; however, you are responsible for improving any inconsistent or unappealing formatting that defaults in from the template. 4. Include a cover page with the assignment name in the middle of the page, and your name, the course, the date, and my name (instructor's name) in the bottom right corner. 5. Important: Save the assignment in your files with a document name that contains your name and identifies the assignment. For example, if your name was John Smyth you would call your document JSmyth Assignment3.doc 6. When ready, submit your document to Assignment 3 by attaching a Word file. Description For this assignment, follow the principles for writing messages that deliver negative news. Think about audience, tone, and layout. After you compose the message, be sure to proofread your correspondence to improve accuracy and concision. For the topic you choose, invent any details that are necessary for the message. 1. The organization you work for has always offered employees time in lieu for hours they work over the set 7.5 hours a day. Many employees prefer time in lieu rather than earning overtime because time in lieu allows them to take days off for work completed and provides them a better work-life balance. Because of growing client demands, employees must now take overtime payouts rather than time in lieu for extra hours they work. Employees will not be happy about this change. Announce the change and retain goodwill with your message. 2. Your office operates out of the 11th floor of an office tower downtown. Presently, members of the Accounting Department have south facing offices with windows that offer a lovely view of the river valley. In three months, your floor will undergo renovations to create more seating because the company is expanding. The south-facing offices will be turned into a staff lounge. Send a message to the manager of the Accounting Department announcing the change. 3. You are a staff sergeant with the Everytown Police Force. Every year, all of the police forces in your province get together to compete in the Police Olympics, a set of drills and athletic events. Members of the force work hard to train for the competitions. Six months ago, you approved Constable GREEN's request to attend and compete in the events in June. You have since found out that a task force on gangs is meeting during the same time and Constable GREEN must attend the meeting. You do hope he will consider representing the Everytown force in the Police Olympics in the future, so write the message in a way that encourages him and perhaps offers something else attractive. 4. See page 215 of your textbook. Write an e-mail based on 7.11 Employee Bad News: Strikeout for Expanded Office Teams. Note: avoid repeating passages in the topic word for word. 5. The library is running a major international event this summer. To meet all deadlines planning, preparing, and setting up the event, management expects employees to work 10 hour days and some weekends for the next three months. Invent the circumstances-name and details about the event, compensation, etc. Directions 1. Choose a topic below. Write an e-mail based on the topic you choose. 2.
