like, let’s say i’m talking to my boss or a coworker through email!! and i type those emojis, like “u” or “:3” (those text emojis), would that be considered a bad idea?? i would use them because i would want people to know how i’m feeling through text and also because i think not using text emojis feels a bit empty, it maybe even makes the message sound rude or angry!! but i could not use emojis if it’s not a good thing

    Only :) or :( are considered acceptable. And only in an informal context with work colleagues, never with anyone more than 1 step removed from you (meaning it might be ok with your supervisor if that’s the kind of relationship you have, but never with your boss’ boss). I don’t make the social rules, don’t @ me.
