This subject jumped out at me today:
Subject: Auction Education -->E B A Y<-- werlhof's disease
Huh?
According to dict.die.net, Werlhof's disease is "purpura associated with a reduction in circulating
blood platelets which can result from a variety of factors".
Huh?
Purpura is "any of several blood diseases
causing subcutaneous bleeding".
Ah.
I am tried of office policy nazis. I don't work at a Fortune 500 company
or a Big 5 consultancy (which are the five, anyway?). I work at a fucking
small company with fewer than 20 employees!
But constantly we hear "Oh, we don't have a policy for that" or "Oh, but
that violates policy". Well then make something up! Be flexible!
Ugh.
