CYA
We have all heard the expression of CYA, “Cover Your Ass”. Sometimes we put specific information in emails to cover our fannies or print it out and save the hard copy when it’s really important, but how about NOT sending an email because it could come back to bite you in the butt?
Regardless of whether it’s petty cattiness about a co-worker, sexual harassment, or an email that could be misconstrued as snippy, if you think there is even a remote chance that someone can use it against you, don’t send it. Call the person or have a face-to-face conversation with them, don’t email.
Of course, if the exact opposite is true and you need a paper trail, then definitely email!
