Victimorthecrime Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 I dislike it when in an apology someone says "IF I offended anyone I am sorry". Sounds half hearted and insincere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLa Posted September 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Yes, they said that, too.

YOTH Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 I regret to inform you that I am regularly apologising and find myself in situations like this on a weekly if not, daily basis. I'm not sure what impact my actions have had on you and I can't guarantee it won't happen again, not that I care very much anyway as I'm extremely busy buying low and selling high. Again, I regret the situation and my secretary Linda apologises from the bottom of her fragile egg shell heart. Many thanks.

Small Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 A few years ago I mastered the worst ever apology. My wording was sooo patronizing. The centerpiece was always "I'm sorry you feel that way (...) I didn't realise you'd feel offended by that". My younger sister & I would have a right blast exchanging notes. Now I believe I say something like "Soz". To be honest I really couldn't give a fuck if I upset someone - unless I broke their trust. Now that is something I would not do.
