Does 'Warmest reptiles' need a second email?
FunnyThe supplier replied, 'Best amphibians to you too.'
I had ended a perfectly ordinary email about tablecloth colours with 'Warmest reptiles'. I'd been writing a silly message to my nephew in another window and copied the wrong sign-off. The order details were all correct.
I laughed and showed a coworker. She said I should send a proper apology so the supplier knew I was being professional. Now I'm staring at a draft that begins, 'Please accept my apologies for the reptiles,' which feels less professional than the original mistake.
The supplier's response includes the colour samples I asked for. Nothing suggests they're upset. Should I briefly acknowledge the slip when replying about the samples, or send the solemn reptile apology separately?
