Is writing "LOL" unprofessional?
In business emails? Just curious

Re: Is writing "LOL" unprofessional?
It depends. If the email is between peers or is personal in nature, I think it's ok. If it's business related, going up or down the chain of command or going to someone outside the company, I think it's unprofessional.

I think it depends on who it is going to and the context.
Sometimes I have just included a :) instead.

I do not. Unprofessional, IMO.

I have done it once or twice over BBM with a coworker when we were joking around during a conference call, but I would NEVER use it in any sort of business correspondence...very unprofessional.

Re: Is writing "LOL" unprofessional?
I've used it a few times, but it was appropriate to the emails we were sending back and forth.
