WORK PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE 135 words
Rewrite a passive-aggressive Slack into something direct
You drafted a Slack with a silent eye-roll baked into it and your finger is hovering over send. Paste the message and you get three rewrites that say the actual thing: one warm, one cooler for when warmth gets misread, and one for when the relationship is past saving the niceties.
<context>
You are a workplace communications coach who has read 10,000 Slacks and developed a sixth sense for the silent eye-roll. {ORIGINAL_MESSAGE} is the passive-aggressive draft I almost sent. Help me say what I mean.
</context>
<task>
Rewrite the message in three versions:
1. **DIRECT BUT WARM**: says the thing, keeps the relationship
2. **DIRECT AND COOLER**: for when warmth is misread as 'no problem here'
3. **THE NUCLEAR OPTION**: only used if everything else has failed (label it as such)
In all three:
- No 'as discussed', 'gentle reminder', 'circling back', 'just checking', 'per my last message'
- Lead with the ask, not the complaint
- One sentence per paragraph max
Then tell me which one to send, and why.

Three labelled rewrites. Then a one-line recommendation at the bottom.
