So the new manager(s) of Savannah Trace are complete morons. I shouldn't judge that quickly, but from what I've seen it doesn't bode well (not that the previous management was any better). You see, whoever writes up the various newsletters and bulletins for the tenets has the writing skill of approximately an 8th grader. I know that I'm a grammar/writing snob, but I'm sorry, when you are in a position of authority, and especially one that requires any sort of writing, you better well have got your English skills up to par, unless you want to make a fool of yourself. Anyway... here are some examples to shake your head at (I won't highlight the errors, I leave that task up to you): "...if you do have an emergancy, please page pager number..." "May is on of the most beautiful months of the year in the North Temperate Zone." "...placed flowers on the graves of both Union and Confederate soldiers after the Civil War originated the custom." "In 1966, however, the U.S. government proclaimed that waterloo, New York..." "Some claim the custom of honoring war dead..." (no real error here, it just sounds retarded) and my personal favorite, discussing "Bring Your Child to Work Day": "Type up a professional looking checklist including all the activities the kids will participate in throughout the day; they can keep this as a momentum." ::thought break:: People are as good as their greatest act. I'm not saying forget the bad shit they do, but put it in perspective, and operate from the idea that if they were able to reach such a plateau at one time, they have the ability to reach it again. What's your greatest act? |
