|
|
| i was put in charge of organizing a law day event for our local 6th graders last week, and i need to do thank yous for the volunteers who led tours and the officeholders who spoke. i've always heard that a hand-written thank you is best, but what if your handwriting is dogshit? should i do a typed thank you letter that will be legible, or a hand-written card that will be semi-legible? thoughts? (and yes, i do realize it doesn't really matter. just wanted the outside opinions.) |

| If the 6th graders were to send you thank yous, which would you rather receive |

| My handwriting is dogshit and I send handwritten thank you cards. If I write a little slower and think about each letter just before I write it, my handwriting is almost legible. |

| how does a grown man not have good enough handwriting to write a note? like oh6 said - just slow down a bit and take some time. i've taken to writing them more frequently lately and always feel good about dropping them in the mail. |

Yea, this. Holy cow, Come on now. If you print in all capitals it helps. |
