Is it rude to end an email with the phrase "please advise"?
The tone of an email is sometimes hard to read. Lately, I have recieved numerous emails that end with "please advise". I don't know if I'm reading into this too much but the phrase "please advise" seems to be a passive aggressive way of saying, "you figure this out and let me know what I need to know but don't know how to ask for." What do you think?
