Proofread your EMails

2007-06-06 Thread Gillian Flato
At my company on Monday, the AC broke. An email was sent explaining what
happened. The writer obviously didn't pay attention to the spelling
autocorrect, or maybe he's dyslexic or something, I don't know. But the
point is, this should teach everyone to proofread before sending an
email and pay attention to the spell checker suggestions...

It's really no joke. We got lucky and didn't burn up any tools or
anyone have heat-stroke. We/I sincerely apologize for the incontinence.

 Thank you,

No need for the apology. The Earth's been like this since Pangaea broke 
up several million years ago.

I had a manager once (a long time ago in a galaxy far away) who once 
told the team that he couldn't make it into the office 'due to the 
incumbent weather'.


Darned spell checkers.

Ok, my favorite word-processorized boo-boo. For reasons that are now lost in 
history, my company is called 'WordMongers' [we sell words, right, geddit?]. In 
negotiating a contract a few years back on behalf of the company, I requested 
that all instances of the term 'author' be changed to 'WordMongers', as the 
contract was on behalf of the company.

The signature field came back 'Duly WordMongersised:'. No-one noticed except 
me, so it went into history like that, as I rather liked it.
