當同事離職時,一般都會買些西餅、蛋糕、曲奇之類款待其他同事,以答謝他們的指導及協助,有時也會順帶發出「道別電郵」,感謝同事、老闆、客戶,談談你的去向,並留下聯絡方法,以便將來保持聯絡。在電郵「標題」的一欄,大家通常會寫上「Farewell」或「Thank you and Goodbye!」 ,而電郵的抬頭可以寫「Dear all」或是「Dear colleagues and friends」。
回顧工作成就 感謝上司同事
道別電郵是離職同事在工作場合最後說話的機會,在電郵中可以回顧一下在工作上的成績,並感謝同事過去一同努力,內容宜保持正面及具鼓勵性,例如你可以在開首說:「I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your support (支持) and guidance(指導)during my five years here. I cherish all the wonderful friends that I have made and the valuable experience (珍貴的經驗)that I have gained.」「指導」的字眼是答謝上司,而「支持」則是感激下屬,而更重要是在工作上能認識一班朋友。
接著你可以回顧一下你在工作上的成就,例如「I thoroughly enjoyed the past 2 years with Corporate Marketing team. I have been fortunate to be involved in launching our fitness centre in Central which attracted over 1000 new members to join our program in half year.」具體地指出成績,讓同事回顧一下昔日大家並肩作戰的時光。
電郵留一線 日後好相見
職場上沒有永遠的敵人,他日在工作上可能會遇上舊同事,故切記不要將工作上的不滿寫在電郵上。內容應盡可能保持簡潔,在結尾部分,可以留下聯絡方法,例如:「I wish you all the best in the future, please take care and stay in touch. My personal email address is ...... and my mobile is ......」。最後,少不免提及你為同事們預備的心意,歡迎他們享用,你可以說:「I have prepared some cakes and cookies in the pantry, please enjoy!」。
在電郵結尾,你可以重申:「Thanks again and wish you all the best in the coming years」又或者「It has been an absolute pleasure working with you and I wish you all the very best.」收到離職同事的電郵後,如你想答謝他的心意,並祝福他未來的日子順利,你可以回覆為「Wish you all the best in your endeavours」,衷心祝願他前程錦繡。 ■香港職業英語計劃辦事處
