Assuming the underlying content is of the same quality, what annoys you more in business communication:
The occasional text-speak-like code and shorthand, or people that TRY to sound formal and business-like, and fail?
I frequently get communications that use 'I' instead of 'me' (presumably because they got corrected on the misuse of "me" so much, they are over-compensating), or misuse "myself" (presumably for the same reason...get corrected about 'I' and 'me', just try another pronoun....), or have sentences contructed in needless complex ways, presumably because they think it sounds more "educated" or "professional."
