Bad News Message Writing ActivityDannyJohnson, an excellen

    Bad News Message Writing ActivityDannyJohnson, an excellent employee in the Sales Department, has requestedthat the company allow employees to bring their dogs to work for oneFriday a month. He says that the Pet-sitters International Team started’Take Your Dog to Work’ day ten years ago, and many offices across thestate set aside a day to help raise awareness of what good companionsdogs are. Danny also had another motive: he hopes to inspire fellowoffice workers to adopt dogs.Danny is a conscientious employeewhose work is valued within the company. However, his request must bedenied. You can’t imagine how to puppy-proof the entire office. Whatabout electrical cables and wires? How about the carpet and possibleaccidents? What if some dogs became overly friendly with each other?What if the dogs became upset or agitated? You think productivity wouldplummet, and you can see no value in the proposal. Much as you admirethe work of Danny, you can’t grant this request. As division head,compose a bad news message refusing the request without alienating DannyJohnson. Use similar business message format as the examples inChapter 9 (page 301, 306, and 307).Task 1: You will create a new discussion topic with your bad news message.Task 2: You will critique 3 of your classmates bad news messages by focusing on the following items:Is the bad news and the reasoning behind it clear?Does the writer adhere to standard business message format?Does the writer offer alternatives to the bad news, or are there no possible alternatives?Is the tone overly negative or angry, causing the reader to tune out the bad news?Is the tone overly solicitous, causing the reader to believe the bad news is really good news, or to miss the bad news entirely?Is the document free of mechanical errors (spelling, punctuation, grammar, etc.)?Is the document free of awkward and wordy phrasing?How could the message be reworded or changed to improve it?
