Aviation itself is the biggest culprit when it comes to incorrect use of English language. How many times have you heard pilots starting a sentence on the radio with ‘…and Center United XYZZ level at 340’ (This is just one example)?

How many times have you corrected (and lambasted) those pilots for using low level of English grammar?

On a lighter note, this is an Informal Internet forum where the use of such language and words is acceptable. So, let off some steam and have a cold glass of beer.

You also seem like a person – more like a 12-year old, who must have the last word. I will give you that in advance. You win!

Wow.

I think AZbound's point was that this particular individual represents management and should be held to a higher standard of professionalism. Unfortunately, this is just one of many proofreading failures that have been committed by those in the corporate office. We used to have green banners scrolling across our bidding screen that were laced with misspellings.
