All workplaces have their typecast. There is the one who stays in the office way past closing time, the one who brings the best food, the one who brings the worst food, the one who steals everyone’s food, the one who thinks coffee constitutes as a snack (it doesn’t), and we could go on forever but have other things to do.
One of those types is the grammar nerd. It’s that same person who will make sure to correct you every time, no matter if it’s in person or in a note like this one.
IT Guys Have the Best Humor
Not everybody knows how to use a computer the way you're supposed to. There are dozens of stories about people putting butter into their disc drives, spilling coffee into their keyboards, and lots more.
If this starts to happen too much, then the IT crowd will start to make things even more embarrassing for those that have done stupid. Go ahead and click on a link in the fishy email when you're using one of these bad boys. It could probably still run “Doom,” but that's about all it can do.
Come and Learn of My Struggle
For a lot of people, the ins and outs of the English language can be troublesome. Yet, after a little bit of study, they are understood. Not so for the person who typed up this message, which is rife with spelling, grammar, and sentence errors.
Go ahead and take a look at all the problems. Bad capitalization, missing commas, and words that don't even have spaces between them. According to the info we have, the manager of the workplace put up this misspelled warning, and one grammar fiend employee took out their trusty red pen. The next time you see a misplaced apostrophe, remember. It could always be worse.
Don't forget your badge
When one of the employees of this company forgets their badge at home, they need to get a replacement one. But rather than using a guest badge or a temporary one, they get this.
Much like the cone of shame from the movie Up (hence the picture of the cone-wearing dog), this is a disciplinary action. Now go sit in the corner and think about what you did.
Talking to the wall
When normal people get a new coffee maker their first thought is usually 'Oh yay, now I can have fresh delicious coffee with the push of a button!' Not this guy.
When he first saw the new coffee machine in the break room he thought he might as well take the opportunity to mess around with some coworkers. He printed out a sticker saying the machine is voice-activated and watched as people spoke to the machine in vain. We're not saying he's the devil, but we're not saying he isn't.
