I know that "kids today" and even old fogies like myself are using some email slang, not using proper punctuation, leaving out letters for faster IM and text capabilities. However, I received this email from someone in another office. Seriously.
if u are referering to a dd2875, the IASO cn sign block 22,and g2 security manager completes part III.
G8 should have its own IASO. if u don't have one yet, I cn sign block 22.
It takes only a fraction of a second longer to type "you" than u. U is not appropriate. Cn is not can. Referering? This is ridiculous.
And this person did not answer my question.
OMGYG2BK! LSHMBH! T+TTTT.

oh my god you've got 2 be kidding.
ReplyDeletelaughing so hard my belly hurts.
think positive - these things take time.
love you!
Totally unprofessional! Question - was this person using a crackberry or similar gadget when responding? If so, I MIGHT be able to see it, but still totally un-pro, IMHO (in my humble opinion)!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder why they spelled out "are" and especially "one" since it has a legitimate one letter substitution, and then used cn for can?
ReplyDeleteI hope I never learn this language, although I'm pretty sure ex-English teacher hubby will never let that happen.
Sure won't!
ReplyDeleteYou'd be amazed at how poorly the average chiropractic student's grammar is these days. I proofread a lot of papers around here!
Oh, how the irony hangs thick in the air. And I read that comment twice, just to be sure.
