The Marketing Muses don’t want you to think we only pick on Associates. On the contrary, we find the typos our EWM Staff members make just as much fun to laugh at. Yup, when selecting our next victim, we definitely employ the equal opportunity method. About a month ago, I received an e-mail from a normally efficient staffer. No, I won’t say which office she works in, but I will share what she wrote. Here it is word for word, I swear.
“We placed an order last week for bi-folders. We would like to know what the statue on that is.”
Right. Let’s see. Marble? Bronze?? Concrete??? It’s hard to know, especially since the pocket could be handled in so many new and innovative ways. Unlike the mundane ink-on-paper pieces we’re stuck using in our offices, a Bi-Folder Statue would stand as a testament to EWM’s mighty real estate power, a force to be reckoned with, a rock of stability in an unstable market. Can’t you picture it? Fully executed contracts tucked securely in the pocket. Completely impervious to the violent whims of nature, neither wind nor rain can bring the Bi-Folder and its precious contents down. An EWM Bi-Folder Statue…the safest haven in the worst of storms.
See, I told you we could make fun of anything!!!
