Speechless

Postby mere1975 » Fri Feb 24, 2006 9:05 pm

From an article I am proofreading about an employee
at our mailing and embossing center:

"There are very few people who know more about Insertion than Shellie."




Yikes.

Everything is spelled correctly, so your job is done, right? The only thing that could make that more informational is including Shellie's phone number.

Are they going to start an "Insertions with Shellie" column in the employee newsletter?

Dear Shellie,
How do I get the gerbils out?

Thanks!

Shellie might refer that question to her counterpart, Tim who is the expert when it comes to extractions...
