    Really?

    Worse than driving drunk? Or doing 120 on the wrong side of the motorway?

    I assume that your attempts to wind me up are just down to your having a dissatisfying life, both professionally and personally. If you put the same effort into improving yourself you'd probably be a lot less miserable. Best of luck with that.

    you're just being silly now. Obviously those things would be worse than the situation emp described, however no one actually does those things, whereas the things people do that emp disapproves of kill millions of people each day. AND NO ONE DOES ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!!!!!
    None of you seem to understand; I'm not locked in here with you, you'll all locked in here with me.

    My Boss

    I've never come across such an unprofessional, foul mouthed, unorganised, filthy idiot in all my life. The only reason he hasn't already gone out of business is because the people who work for him want to keep their job so it's basically the employee's keeping the business from crumbling. I've only been working for him since last June and I'm already looking for other jobs.

    I work in Harpenden which is filled with rich families so I come across them all the time. They treat everyone else like peasants and can't take care of their own kids so they hire a nanny.

    Gimps who wear their jeans far too low and wear those huge, brightly coloured hats.

    Just stop.

    Took them 7 weeks and 4 stern emails to finally get my DVD I ordered from them. I won't be buying from them again and I don't recommend you buy from them either.

    Your sentence does not make a conclusive statement. ie what about the employees who are keeping the business from crumbling. The correction of your "correction"states that an employee is keeping a business from crumbling.

    Musophilr is right Chris, it's "employees". Because of the preceeding "the people who work for him want to keep their job". It's plural.

    Signed: another lingual pedant.
