AIBU to ask what email sign offs you use

[spaghettimaretti]

Just that really.

I think regards sounds grumpy.

Best wishes slightly flimsy.

Yours sincerely is more for hard copy letters.

Saw yours truly the other day but that sounds odd and somehow ancient.

I’m in a senior professional role in quite a conventional field. Currently use kind regards but feel like an update.

What are people using just now?

Kind regards - in every and all situations

Kind regards or Many thanks but not if I’ve already said thanks in the email

Kind regards or many thanks, depending on the email.

Thanks

Depends what the email is. A response to a query from a colleague, I just answer with no sign off.
A response to someone I don't work with as closely or to a mass email - my name/Thanks
Not a colleague - many thanks/kind regards

All the best,

Many thanks, kind regards, or just 'regards' if they've annoyed me 😁

Oh interesting, lots of kind regards so far. Maybe no update needed!

Kind regards
Many thanks
Thanks and regards
Thanks
Best
Very best
Regards
Kindest regards

Kind regards

I really don't stress about it or whether there's one at all or even if there's a salutation (depending on who its from)

Lol I use regards too if I want to be arsey but still prof

Do we do salutations? I always use Dear. Have irrational dislike of Hi in prof emails.

Don’t do what I did once and put my initial and kisses to the head master without thinking..

"Best regards" on all work emails.

With best wishes (sensitive emails)
best wishes (standard emails)
many thanks (when I’ve asked for an action)
BW (colleagues in my direct team)

It depends who I’m emailing.

‘Kind regards’ is my most formal sign-off, for people I don’t know at all. Next level down would be ‘Many thanks’ or ‘Best wishes’. Colleagues I chat with regularly and know well get ‘All the best’ or more likely ‘Cheers’.

I sign off with just ‘Regards’ it means I fucking hate you.

😀

Many thanks

Unless I’m annoyed with you… 😂

Kind regards but only (like PPs) because it gives me the option of dropping the kind when people piss me off.

Kind regards generally especially to external emails. If they have annoyed me somewhat I may downgrade to Regards.

For internal emails it will quite often be Thanks or Many thanks

I always use good morning/afternoon

You can get away with "Good morning" and no name. makes it easier if they've signed with their surname and you don't know whether to use first name or not, and it saves worrying about "Dear" or "Hi".

I end with "Thanks" "See you tomorrow" or similar if appropriate, otherwise either Kind Regards or mirror the person I'm replying to.

I received an email today where the sign-off was "Warmly" . Fucking hideous😂

I don't like any of them - will say Thank you/ Thanks/ Cheers if I'm asking for something. Otherwise I just aim for a friendly tone and sign off with my name

All the best, for most
Cheers, for more informal emails

Hi there,
Many thanks

I don't work so I expect this is too informal for most.
