Just Because You Spellchecked...

Nothing makes the editorial department feel so smug as when we spot errors in the writing of coworkers, particularly if it’s unintentionally funny. (We editors also find alliteration funny on occasion. We don’t get out much.) This afternoon, our office manager sent out an email to all staff, advising us that the Pitney Bowes mail metering machine was inoperable and that no mail would be sent out tonight. In closing, she wrote:

I am sorry for the incontinence.

Ha ha! We gave her a standing ovation and recommendations for absorbent undergarments.
