How DO you go about correcting your bosses? Or do you? ...our web page is going to be horrendous. The phrases are convoluted, words are used improperly and proper grammar, well, virtually nonexistent.
Before attemptng the following, be sure the money needed is in random bills. Wash and iron them to clean off fingerprints ... it won't hurt the money. Before handling washed money don gloves to avoid prints.
Then :
1. Put on a disguise -- wig, gloves, veil, hat, whatever.
2. Take bus or train to a nearby CITY where you are not likely to be known or seen.
3.Go to a bookstore and buy sufficient copies of Strunk & White's : "Elements of Style" to give one to each boss.Have the clerk choose and bag them.
4. Pay cash from your washed money.
5. Return home. Be sure you aren't being followed.
6. Wrap each book in plain brown paper -- remember to wear the gloves...
7. Go in to work early and, wearing latex gloves, place a copy in the center of each Boss's desk.
8. Destroy the gloves in the paper shredder.(forensics, you know!)![]()
PLAN B :
Sign 'em all up for A Word A Day.
Good luck.
