Subject:        Clothes

Hey:

Hi, my name is Paul and I am writing this email to ask all of you to answer the questions below about the possibility of starting a casual dress day here at Datatech. Many employees and some managers have asked about the possibility of dressing casually once in a while - maybe every Friday for example. We cannot make a decision on this until we receive everyone's input. In my own opinion, casual clothing may make an employee more comfortable at work, but it may also make him look sloppy. Respond to the following questions to help us determine a course of action. Would you like to see one day a week set aside as a casual dress day? Why? If yes, should we set up a written dress code to prohibit such clothing as shorts, tank tops, T-shirts with slogans, etc? Do you think a casual dress code would effect the office environment? Send responses by Feb 14 so we can discuss the matter at next Management Team meeting. Thanks.Change the following email so it follows the guidelines for format, design, tone and style:
