stevelknievel 51 Report post Posted February 16, 2015 I have a co-worker who will say " Oh, that's mines" instead of mine. I cringe knowing she's talking to clients. When i was doing tech support in a call center some of the stuff i heard has scarred me for life. I don't know which one takes the cake, hearing some lady tell a customer "n as in knife" twice or hearing "is it plugged up" instead of plugged in.

kovalchuk71 212 Report post Posted February 17, 2015 At the gym. On my last rep on the bench and can't quite get it. Call for a spotter. Guy comes over, and what does he do you ask? Grab the middle of the bar like a normal person would do? NO. He proceeds to grab one of the ends of the barbell and proceeds to pull it up, effectively throwing me completely off balance. I honestly don't know what to do at this point, so I hold on in hopes he will figure it out. Finally, after yelling at him to grab the middle of the bar, he obliges and we bring the weight back up. My left oblique is now killing me. Hopefully it's just a pull.Idiot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hordie Gowe 17 Report post Posted February 21, 2015 I have a co-worker who will say " Oh, that's mines" instead of mine. I cringe knowing she's talking to clients. I have an employee that says "gunna" instead of going to. I explained to her that if she continues to do so she's not "gunna" have a job anymore. I think that got the message across.

wrangler 157 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 "Could of", "would of", "should of", and the general deterioration of the Gen Pop's English Language skills."u", "ur", etc. in posts and even post titles. Nominative case personal pronouns as objects of predicates or prepositions. Inability to conjugate past and present perfect tenses. Writing "should of" for "should've". The list goes on, even though this stuff is taught over and over, for so many years in school. Most often I hear that from the sportscasters on TV, who seem to consistently have these problems, and sometimes I just get fed up. Oh, yeah, TV folks also seem to think they can use "with" as a predicate.It doesn't seem to get any better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
