An email from the highest-ranking person at my workplace that went out to ALL employees, opened like this today:
Dear Employees,
As your aware, we had a blood drive yesterday...
*facepalm*
Just shoot me.
Please.
Yes, I know...it's an easy typo to make. And I would expect to see it all over Facebook, Twitter, comment threads at various websites, and in texts. But I hold journalists, executives, educators (and others who should know better) to a higher standard.
It takes less than a minute to proofread your email before hitting SEND. Such a small investment of time to avoid looking dumb.
What awful emails have you received from the "top dogs" at your company that made your head shake with grammatical disgust?
