Is it just me, or does George have fangs?

Haha.

I went snowboarding with the coworkers last weekend…including Ms. Incompetence.

My friend said she’s never seen me get down the mountain as fast as when Ms. I skied towards me to tell me something.

good to bad to better to worse

I have this coworker. You all have that coworker. Incompetence Incarnate.

Good to bad.

For the first few months, her incompetence didn’t bother me because we were both new (though she had a month on me but didn’t show it).

Until…I found myself at work, very ill and entering 20 cases into the computer, while she complained about every trivial problem in her little, close-minded world. Guess how many cases she entered.

In fact, I cannot find any positive quality about her, except that she is always happy…because she is utterly clueless and has no idea that everyone dislikes her.

Better.

After many rants, my friend asked me why I let her bother me so much. I have no idea. Wait, she’s Incompetence Incarnate. In any case, it irritated me that she manages to irritate me without knowing it, so I just got over it.

Worse.

Why? Because stupid people can’t help being stupid. Especially this one. Can’t hate her. And I’m too smart to let her get to me anymore.

Conclusion.

I’m highly competent and intelligent. but ignorance is bliss.

Another Grammar Post

I just had to google the spelling of the word version of 40… I literally could not tell if “forty” or “fourty” was correct. They both looked wrong to me (“forty” is the right spelling).

Anyway, in addition to spawning embarrassment for not knowing how to spell a simple word despite my claiming to be an excellent speller, this incident caused me to stumble upon this excellent website:

Common Errors in English Usage: http://wsu.edu/~brians/errors/errors.html

It has everything, from the simple obvious errors like your/you’re, to spelling variations like disc/disk, to explaining misquoted phrases like “butt/buck naked.” It’s an interesting read, especially if you’re a grammar/spelling nazi like me. Enjoy!

Rants in a row
