Boss praised for the perfect email he sent to his employee

A boss has been complimented for sending the ‘perfect email’ to an employee, who then shared it on TikTok — saying she would ‘100 per cent recommend working with people who get you.’

TikToker Jess (@notjessicasimpson) shared a screenshot of an email their manager had sent her just after 8 am one morning. 

It begins with the boss asking her to call him when she gets a chance which as a statement is quite breezy, but can scare any employee.

Several questions come to one’s mind like ‘Am I about to be fired?’, ‘Am I being made redundant?’ and ‘Are my hours being cut?’and only get worse as the call or meeting approaches. 

But Jess’ boss immediately put her at ease, by telling her upfront that ‘nothing is wrong,’ and that they just wanted to find out how her time off had been. 

The email continues: “Sounds good. Call me when you have a chance – NOTHING IS WRONG! We haven’t spoken and I wanted to see how your holidays were. 

“PLEASE DO NOT READ ANYTHING ELSE INTO THIS REQUEST.” 

The post has racked up more than 600,000 likes and 2.8 views, with many people commenting to praise the simple but very effective approach.

The official LinkedIn TikTok account even piped up, writing: “The best boss award goes to…”

Someone else agreed that they sounded like a ‘good boss’, while a third added: “This is a perfect email!”

Many others said they appreciated how their own boss did the same, while several managers commented to say it was something they tried to do too.
