Hello everyone. Welcome to E-mail Picks.
How's everyone doing? On my side,
0:00:10.349,0:00:15.059
it seems our HR department is really
making an effort to recruit people these
0:00:15.059,0:00:20.789
days. They are organizing a party at our
offices to invite some people who are
0:00:20.789,0:00:26.789
friends, or friends of friends of our
current employees. Basically, we want the
0:00:26.789,0:00:31.800
guests to have a better idea of what the
people working at Bizmates are like, and
0:00:31.800,0:00:36.780
perhaps have Bizmates in mind when it's
time for them to change jobs in the
0:00:36.780,0:00:41.700
future. So some of our employees are
going to join the party and eat and
0:00:41.700,0:00:46.079
drink and talk with these special guests.
We of course want to make a good
0:00:46.079,0:00:51.539
impression, so we all need to look neat.
We need to dress neatly, but also not so
0:00:51.539,0:00:54.690
uptight. Not too formal, like what I'm
wearing today.
0:00:54.690,0:01:00.660
So HR says the dress code will be semi-casual. Now in my department, there are
0:01:00.660,0:01:06.540
many people from different countries and
backgrounds, so probably, each person's
0:01:06.540,0:01:11.490
idea of "semi-casual" is a little
different. So today, I'm going to write to
0:01:11.490,0:01:16.530
my colleagues to inform them what's in
and what's out in terms of clothes they
0:01:16.530,0:01:23.159
should wear to the party. So here goes.
Hello everyone, As for the cocktail party
0:01:23.159,0:01:28.320
HR is hosting in the evening of 19th, the
purpose is to communicate who we are and
0:01:28.320,0:01:32.400
our vibe to people who may be interested
in working with us in the future.
0:01:32.400,0:01:37.680
Therefore, while we would like to present
our usual selves to our guests, we do
0:01:37.680,0:01:42.420
want to leave a positive impression.
The dress code will be semi-casual - For
0:01:42.420,0:01:46.950
men, please wear a collared shirt no
shorts or t-shirts with ketchup stains
0:01:46.950,0:01:50.640
please. And I'm sorry I'm not
knowledgeable enough about women's semi-
0:01:50.640,0:01:55.229
casual attire so I need to rely on you
to figure it out yourselves. See you on
0:01:55.229,0:01:59.759
Wednesday,
Kyota. OK, so I started out by reminding
0:01:59.759,0:02:05.159
everyone the purpose of this event. Our
vibe in this case means the atmosphere
0:02:05.159,0:02:10.759
of our workplace. And then, I wrote about
the dress code, and here, it's
0:02:10.759,0:02:14.269
important to give practical examples so
that there won't be any
0:02:14.269,0:02:19.790
misunderstandings. I wrote "no t-shirts
with ketchup stains" so that my male
0:02:19.790,0:02:25.280
colleagues will know that they need to
look clean. As for the ladies, well, I'm
0:02:25.280,0:02:29.720
sure they know far better than I do
about what semi-casual attire means for
0:02:29.720,0:02:34.250
them, so I didn't give any concrete
examples. I mean, I don't have enough
0:02:34.250,0:02:42.799
vocabulary to talk about women's dress
codes. I only know... skirt... pants............ and that's...
0:02:42.799,0:02:47.810
that's it. OK, so anyway, there you
go. An e-mail to inform the dress code
0:02:47.810,0:02:53.510
for an event. What you wear says a lot
about you and your company, so I need to
0:02:53.510,0:02:57.230
be careful too. Anyway, that's it for
today. Thank you for watching as always
0:02:57.230,0:03:00.489
and I'll see you next week.
