Okay Then...More Reason to Proofread...
It's been a crazy week. We've almost made it to the weekend! Here are some of the typos and bloopers that I've run across this week...
1. On a recent Facebook post, someone responded, "Holly cow!" to another's photos.
2. In our local paper, a story reported that a "woman died of her injures."
3. MS Word tried to change my "one of the criterion" to "one of the criterions." Bad Word! What happened to "criteria"?
4. We have a food aisle at work between the cubicles. There's a long row of short filing cabinets and on most days, it looks like a buffet of goodies and snacks. Someone sent out an email last week that there were "muffins on the middle isle."
5. I saw an application entry this week where someone listed "General Sewer" under occupation. The company listed was a shirt factory, so I assume it was for a garment maker?
Happy Friday!
