I may have mentioned here before how much I love my job, but for those with short memories – its great. So great in fact that a colleague and I have today started an e-mail phrase contest.
Its quite simple really, all you have to do to win a point is include a selected phrase in an e-mail. To make it checkable the other party has to be copied on the message and its purpose can’t be to simply use up a phrase. We are starting simply and currently only have two phrases;
“I want never gets, please may I have sometimes does” – courtesy of my parents
“cognitive dissonance presumes the existence of cognition” – courtesy of EmptyBottle.org
That should keep us amused for a while.
