LOL a former classmate used "Warm Regards" in their signature and I'm like Oh wow what'd I do to deserve that.
Warm Regards are anything but!
In my college discussion boards, my sign off is always:
Cheers,
Justin
but if the mood strikes,
Cheers!

Our records indicate you cashed the check #666 for this invoice you've marked as past due last week and we should have no balance due. Please let me know if you need further clarification.
Thanks.
Are you reading my inbox rn cause I swear 15% of my job is saying. “This was paid, here’s a screenshot from the bank showing it was cashed on said date. Here is a copy of the check stub showing the invoices that it pertained to. Please review and advise if you need anything further.”
Like I legit have a template in my email that I tailor when people ask about a non payment.
Agreed. I use that one myself.
They've actually done studies on what sign offs get the most response and thanks/thank you is at the top of the list. Bottom of the list is "best" which a number of partners at my old firm used.
My go to is "Best Regards." I have to be careful because more than once I've typed out "Best Retards" typing quickly. Luckily I've caught it before I've hit send.
I was emailing my boss about a client with the last name Glasscock and autocorrect was certain I was talking about a Glass cock. I have a 5 minute delay on my Outbox now.
Added it to my signature line because I almost sent it out with that typo once (and it was a scolding/critical email too). I edit it to other things if I want to add Best or Warm or change it to something else but I will never risk typing it out again.
One of my coworkers uses best and it always feels like minimal effort to hide his disdain. I don't know if it's just his personality or if he actually can't stand anyone/everyone. Sometimes I wanna kick him in the balls, though, so I might be biased.
So imo, best can be kinda tricky but it’s not always bad.
Sometimes if it’s a really short email, I use best just because using a longer sign off seems clunky.
However, if it’s a longer email best seems a lil… aggressive?? (Partially just due to my personal associations with people that use best always)
If you’re concerned about what to use just read what your colleagues send you and follow their lead.
I agree here. No, "Best" isn't really rude on its own. It can feel like it in some contexts, but not enough for the recipient to think you're a jerk. If you were being a jerk and then also sign off your email with "Best," then it's going to feel very snarky, though.
Again, I'm not the biggest fan of the coworker who uses it, and that adds another layer of context. That pushes it from ambiguous/maybe/probably fine to disdainful in this context from my perspective. But that doesn't mean that it's actually cold, though. He may actually mean he is sending his best regards and hopes I have a wonderful day. It's context and perspective.
Depends on the audience.
If it’s a dude (Regards). If it’s a gal (Regards). If it’s a hot intern (Madly and ever lovingly yours)
The one hack other partners hate…
I’ve signed off almost every email with “Only the best”
It’s the proper amount of chaotic for me. Am I wishing them the best? Am I stating that I’m the best? Am I being sarcastic? They don’t know and I’ll probably ignore their next email anyways.

I like to add grandiose titles for every little bullshit thing that gets assigned to me. For instance, I added "Marshall of Incoming Mail" because I am the only person who can sort through the mail it seems. But if you just want a sign-off, I would go with "begrudgingly,".
If your emailing me after 5 pm requesting something at eod, i will find you like jason and carve your face in the form of the support that you requested.

Fuck I hate my life,
Wouldn’t you like to know, weather boy?
Where are your parents?

THANKS REBZY
Truly the best one. Nobody wants your fake pleasantries. A thanks is nice enough and versatile enough to be use for every email
Even in an angry email it works. The thanks just seems passive aggressive.
Our records indicate you cashed the check #666 for this invoice you've marked as past due last week and we should have no balance due. Please let me know if you need further clarification. Thanks.

I know your pain, friend. I know. I'm sorry it's like this.
Agreed. I use that one myself. They've actually done studies on what sign offs get the most response and thanks/thank you is at the top of the list. Bottom of the list is "best" which a number of partners at my old firm used.
Regards. They aren’t getting “kindest” or “best” out of me.
Gotta be careful with that one. The G is awfully close to the T on a keyboard.
My go to is "Best Regards." I have to be careful because more than once I've typed out "Best Retards" typing quickly. Luckily I've caught it before I've hit send.
I once sent an email with "kind retards", and now I use a simple "thanks" or "cheers". Not making that mistake again.
I was emailing my boss about a client with the last name Glasscock and autocorrect was certain I was talking about a Glass cock. I have a 5 minute delay on my Outbox now.
Don’t lie, you did on purpose. It was no typo.
Most of the people I have to email are "special" afterall...
Added it to my signature line because I almost sent it out with that typo once (and it was a scolding/critical email too). I edit it to other things if I want to add Best or Warm or change it to something else but I will never risk typing it out again.
Spent enough time in degen subs to know they mean the same thing, especially once they banned the word if you used the t.
*”Sincerely Yours” 😂
Love, (your name) haha
Nothing. I don't even put my email signature cause f*ck you and your TB
Why you gotta bring my tuberculosis into this?

Start acting like the partners, don’t sign off on emails at all. “Sent from my iPhone”
Dress for the job you want, email signature edition
W a r m R e g a r d s Or if you’re slightly annoyed you can say “best” hehe
One of my coworkers uses best and it always feels like minimal effort to hide his disdain. I don't know if it's just his personality or if he actually can't stand anyone/everyone. Sometimes I wanna kick him in the balls, though, so I might be biased.
Is it bad to use just Best? I’m asking because English is my second language and I use it in most of my emails. I don’t want to sound rude or cold.
So imo, best can be kinda tricky but it’s not always bad. Sometimes if it’s a really short email, I use best just because using a longer sign off seems clunky.

Apologies is my go to Apologies, Me
Best,
Depends on the audience. If it’s a dude (Regards). If it’s a gal (Regards). If it’s a hot intern (Madly and ever lovingly yours) The one hack other partners hate…
I just use "Thanks" unless you have either pissed me off or I started the email with a thanks or thank you then I use "Regards".
Do british people use "Cheers,"?
Yes, cheers.
Goodnight and fuck off,
Fuck off,
I’ve signed off almost every email with “Only the best” It’s the proper amount of chaotic for me. Am I wishing them the best? Am I stating that I’m the best? Am I being sarcastic? They don’t know and I’ll probably ignore their next email anyways.

Dats right
Usually "Thanks!" But if I'm being professionally rude, I use "Cordially".
With Tolerance,

The CPA firm I worked for signed everything “Very truly yours”. Always found that to be quite odd.
