I am an Executive Assistant, so we get meeting requests from various high-level executives to set up meetings. One of my coworkers this morning said she got an odd e-mail last night to set up a meeting for Mrs. Z, the Chief Operating Officer of the company I work for. The request was:
Please set up a 30 minute meeting with Mr. X and Mr. Y, Re: Orgy.
My coworker e-mailed Mrs. Z back and asked her to please clarify. (She certainly wasn't going to coordinate her orgy.) It wasn't until Mr. X e-mailed her (he was copied on the request) and commented on the "orgy" that Mrs. Z realized her mistake. She really meant "Ortho".
Whoops!!! ![]()

You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through.
If you were in my shoes, you'd fall the first step."
Wow.... that's a serious typo.
I would have laughed my a$$ off if I saw that!
Mrs. Z apparently was mortified. She said those letters are quite close together on her blackberry...
I can kind of relate, since my phone auto-corrects and changes my text to funny things. Like texting my sister about her horse, Maari. I wrote, "How is Maari?" and my phone auto corrected it to "How is masturbation?" Hee, hee! Only difference is that I proof before I hit send.
This is exactly what I was thinking!
ROFL!!! OMG, my stomach hurts!
