You are very welcome, just remember if you are writing a letter relating to a business matter you need to keep personal stuff out of it like feeling and similar. Keep it factual and to the point. I always imagine how I would like it to be written to me, if that helps.

agree with Gail hon, though I've done similar - written what I felt, then gave to hubby who told me what I should put I edited it of course but it actually made me feel good to get it all down (how I felt etc) but very glad I never sent that version

you do because you are verablising your feelings but in a way that won't affect your relationship with her or your business. just getting it all out helps

I think it's only right you leave that letter too.

It's far too long & in parts very personal - I found it a little intimidating too. You no doubt didn't mean it to be like that at all but that's my personal take on it.

Letters must always be short and to the point.

It's evident that you were upset and writing it down sometimes helps get it off your chest. It's great you have reflected on this afterwards before taking any action as this shows deep down you weren't 100% about the letter as it stands too.

Sending a letter like that would go on to cause alot more upset and hassle than it would be worth.

Keep it short an to the point.

If they are taking the p don't just stand for it.

Talk to them first and if nothing improves put it in writing and keep a copy of it for your records too.

Hope things work out ok for you x

P.S - I've only really read your first post and skimmed through the others it's late and I'm in need of zzzz's so if Ive missed a little here an there - it is midnight with a beautiful 6am alarm set :/

Goodnight folks xxx
