"Cheers"

I want to let you know I'm cool and hip. It's a warm sign off.

I’ve worked for British firms the bulk of my career. Anybody who says or writes ‘cheers’ as a sign off can fuck right off.

Particularly so if they’re American.

Yeah, I take the "cheers" sign off to be a pretty strong indicator that the person using it is likely some sort of climbing asswipe who can't be trusted on any level. My instinct has been proven overwhelmingly correct thus far.

I’ve gone to just my name. No regards, thanks, best regards...just the name when a signature is called for.

So you've steered away from the formal sign off. You recognize the difference between a handwritten letter and an email on the computer. Power move. I respect it.

Thank you

But in small font italics. Its just a placeholder for the end of my dumbass thoughts

My signature could serve the same purpose, but the current corporate climate expects a formal close. I hope that ends, because its stupid and wastes bits which accumulates more c02 in the air

I go with the old standard regards. I don’t like best regards, kind regards or warm regards. Just regards. That’s all you’re getting from me.

"Respectfully" if I just said something assholish. Best Regards or just my first name the majority of the time.

I end them with “Peace out.” I also don’t send business emails.

They are lucky if we respond at all. They can look at paylocity and see if we are working for chrissakes.

I use just my first name, lower case only, especially if corresponding with those deemed superior to me.

None. According to that chart that comes around from time to time about how people end emails, I'm neutral evil.

Emails are basically the new fax machines anyway.
