A secretary at Maclay Murray & Spens' Glasgow office is likely to find herself without a job after sending a foul mouthed letter to a top client.

The secretary worked for a partner in the firm's Private Client department, and has apparently been at the firm for nearly 30 years. So she should probably have known better than to end her missive with "I hope you're OK (but we don't really give a f*ck)".

Needless to say it wasn't asterisked, the client complained and the secretary is now facing dismissal.

The reason for the outburst is unknown. Maybe the office held an early Christmas lunch and the Tennent's got the better of her. Or maybe she was just having a really bad day. Whatever the explanation, the firm is embarrassed, the client is furious and the secretary is facing Christmas without a job. Always think before pressing "send"...

A spokesman for the firm said "the matter is subject to an ongoing disciplinary process and it would, therefore, be inappropriate to comment any further".
