You can do it. Press send.
You’ve made it this far. I mean, someone in the office has clearly trusted you enough to not only construct an email thanking your local supplier for their recent delivery, but to also press send on said email thanking your local supplier for their recent delivery.
Something like this doesn’t come along every day. This is opportunity literally smacking you in the face with its simple Gmail user-face.
You have to go for it!
You’re capable!
You’re ambitious!
You were near-by!
They’ve chosen you for a reason. You demonstrated real gumption at the staff picnic last quarter. Your tug-of-war technique was flawless, and they noticed. I mean who didn’t, Penelope didn’t know what was coming her way when she stepped up to the mark.
So, what are you waiting for? You’ve gone through the hardest part already with that killer introduction you’ve been toying with for the last 45 minutes:
“Hello,
Thank You.”
Sans serif, normal size, black - you’re magnificent. It’s perfect. Textbook!
I see your signature down the bottom there too, don’t think I haven’t. This is an email. A true email. No fluff.
So, why are you so scared? Is it because of who you’re sending it to? The recipient of this ‘Thank You’ email. One Cassandra O’Rourke… your former lover? You can’t ignore her forever, you know that. Sooner or later you’re going to need to send an email to her, an employee of one of your most important local suppliers!
This is a test of your will, a test of your ability to throw emotions to the side and conduct business in a professional manner with Cassandra O’Rourke - the woman who left you at the altar.
Forget Cassandra, she stole your Lego collection. She still owes you you’re portion of the bond! Use this as a chance to show the world, and Cassandra, that you’re still worthy of love and also worthy of sending low priority emails that won’t impact the day-to-day.
Opportunity doesn’t knock twice.
Don’t waste this precious chance.
Great work
