Why can't i just add a smiley face

So work email has many unspoken rules, golden etiquette and what nots. Drafting it really gives me a mini headache.

I want to sound polite and nice yet not so cheerful that i irk some grumps or sound like a kid.

If my words are phrased too politely i may come off sounding like a cold bitch. No matter how i put it then i look at it, it still sounds bitchy to me. Or sometimes i think how i phrase it makes me sound like someone's boss. For example, in email i could type.

Hi John Doe,

I would appreciate if you could get me a copy of ABC company's financials. Thanks!

Regards,
Debby

I feel like i sound like that person's cold bitchy boss saying that in a authoritarian tone.

Now if i could just add a smiley face at the end of it all it will sound so much more cheery to the recipient and probably closer to how i actually speak.

Nobody ever told that u had to worry about such inconsequential things when u start working, or am i just a special case of a worry wart with an over-active imagination?

Damn it this feels too right , the one we all dream of (Nickelback: Gotta Be Somebody)



This time I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So I´ll be waiting for the real thing.
I'll know it by the feeling.
The moment when we´re meeting
will play out like a scene straight off the silver screen
So I`ll be holdin’ my own breath
Right up to the end
Until that moment when
I find the one that I'll spend forever with

*(`Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There`s gotta be somebody for me like that.)

Repeat *

Tonight, out on the street out in the moonlight
And dammit this feels too right
It´s just like Déjà Vu
Me standin’ here with you
So I´ll be holdin`my own breath
Could this be the end?
Is it that moment when
I find the one that I'll spend forever with?

‘Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There´s gotta be somebody for me like that.

Repeat *

You can´t give up!
Lookin´ for that diamond in the rough
You never know but when it shows up
Make sure you´re holdin` on
‘Cause it could be the one, the one you´re waiting on

‘Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There has gotta be somebody for me

Nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There`s gotta be somebody for me out there.

Nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There has gotta be somebody for me out there.
