Date: 2008-02-14 08:56 pm (UTC)i'm transcribing an internal meeting right now for an enormous fortune 100 company. i know we have used many of their products in our household. and the speaker, a man you know takes home a paycheck much larger than anyone i personally know, is using the WORST grammar i've ever heard. it's sickening.
