grammar 101

Confession:

I occasionally email my co-workers with a grammar correction, spelling correction etc. regarding their emails.  Especially co-workers that I adore and like.  Why?  Because I don’t like them to appear stupid via the written word.

Yes, this is probably wrong.  However, they always thank me.  You probably already know I can be stupid.

p.s. I don’t care if I made a grammatical error here.

I find myself biting my tongue on occasion. Not with grammar, Lord knows I’m not a grammar person. No, my problem is that someone will say something that I know for a fact to be wrong and I find myself correcting them for the same reason. I have to keep my mouth shut sometimes, though because I sometimes come across as thing I know it all, which I sure as hell do not. Another thing I do that probably irritates people is when they forward me an email that I know is a hoax. I always send the link to back up my facts, but again, sometimes the less said is better. I know one thing though. There are three people I know in 3-D life that don’t send me anymore emails promising me riches, free money and other things I will never get.
