Victimorthecrime Posted September 6, 2017 Report 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
LaLa Posted September 7, 2017 Author Report Posted September 7, 2017 Yes, they said that, too. (BTW, here is an interview with the authors: http://www.cbc.ca/radio/outintheopen/sorry-states-1.4268248/how-to-apologize-well-and-avoid-apologizing-badly-1.4268296 ) Quote
YOTH Posted September 11, 2017 Report 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. Mr Ralph ( pronounced Rafe ) Mupplit-Jones Jr TooOld4This 1 Quote
Small Posted September 12, 2017 Report 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. Quote
