Most Embarrassing Spelling Mistake


So today at work I typed an e-mail and missed out just one single letter in somebody's name. I unfortunately pressed send before reviewing.... I'm now dying of embarrassment. You know when you suddenly realise what you've done and there's that  omg.gif  moment !

The name was Mike Angus... I'll leave it to you to guess which letter got left out !

Oh indeed yes!   I am actually finding it quite funny, but I don't really know Mike very well so I'm embarrassed too. Luckily I didn't copy any senior people into the mail and it was just an informal list of actions after a meeting. Sometimes don't you just wish you could go back and do an edit like on the JDBB?

Totally! I do that all the time - maybe that would be a cool feature to introduce - as long as the email is unread, you can take it back

it is funny though - good job :)

giggle.gif  poor you Catfish & poor Mike too!

Reminds me of the time I just HAD had to point out a typo made by the most prim and proper girlie in the office (she wears virtual green wellies and takes umbridge when someone says 'bugger')
She was sending round minutes of a meeting in which club 'T-shits' were discussed!  Oh, she nearly died! biggrin.gif

A recent report to Government looking at competitiveness impacts of emissions trading added an 'h' where one was not supposed to be:

"the glass sector is worth nothing"

Fortunately all the people working in the glass sector laughed and laughed....
