ENG 209: Reasons for Criticism

+Incompetence I think the reasons for criticizing someone about incompetence goes without saying. If I find a coworker isn’t carrying their weight, I usually tell them directly instead of going straight to a manager. -Hygiene If a coworker has poor hygiene it reflects badly on themselves; I would also choose a direct approach to letting … Continue reading ENG 209: Reasons for Criticism

+Incompetence

  • I think the reasons for criticizing someone about incompetence goes without saying. If I find a coworker isn’t carrying their weight, I usually tell them directly instead of going straight to a manager.

-Hygiene

  • If a coworker has poor hygiene it reflects badly on themselves; I would also choose a direct approach to letting a coworker know their hygiene could be better, since it can be an embarrassing.

-Poor punctuality

  • I don’t think this one would be my place to criticize, a supervisor would likely take notice and action before I would.

-Unfriendly

  • It’s hard to criticize someone directly just for being unsociable, I believe the best course of action would be to just avoid this person.

-Slow

  • Sometimes it can be stressful to be told hurry up, so I would try to give my coworker some advice on how to be more efficient about doing their job.

Apple Customer Support,

Please replace my Iphone X’s faulty wireless charger

I’ve recently purchased the new Iphone X. When I tried to charge my device, I found the wireless charging wouldn’t work. I was very disappointed since I’ve been a loyal apple customer for years and have come to expect a higher sense of quality control. Seeing as this device was defective out of the box, I don’t think it is unreasonable to ask for a replacement plus a set of wireless earpods for my troubles.

Thanks, Ben

  • What stands out in your mind as something important you learned?

I would say the most important thing I’ve learned early on in this class is just how important the phrasing of your message is. I didn’t realize how many different ways there are to phrase a single message, and how much more effective some ways are than others depending on the situation at hand.
