Is the sentence 「もう少し誠実に対応頂けませんか。」rude and unprofessional? What does it literally mean in English?


If you think a person has been irresponsible with his work (changing responses
to inquiries without reason and not really researching for the answer) and you
sent a message with the ending sentence 「もう少し誠実に対応頂けませんか。」can you consider
this word as too harsh or rude or unprofessional?

Does 「もう少し誠実に対応頂けませんか。」mean, 「Can you be more serious with your work.」?




Meaning-wise and grammar-wise, this sentence is perfect. Indeed it is harsh,
but it may be rightly so; there are situations you may need to write an email
like this one. Anyone who has received it will notice his/her overall work
attitude is severely doubted.
