Communication tip (Nothing left to guess): Clear writing habits: short, clear sentences, checking the spelling, saying who it is from, adding date and time, using polite words, reading it once more. Poor writing habits: writing in ALL CAPS, no greeting at all, too many emojis, missing key details, one very long sentence, slang to elders. A clear note answers who, what, when and where: “Kabir, cricket practice is moved to 4 PM on Saturday.”
