SUSAN WEEK #1: Double Standard

Written By: admin - Oct• 12•09

Welcome to Susan Week!  My old friend S2W has offered up a series of delicious Red-Pen-able photographs for our viewing pleasure.  We begin with what Susan calls “bad apostrophe usage with good common sense.”

It’s a double standard because employee’s are supposed to wash their hands, but employer’s don’t have to proofread their signage.  Of course, “employee” is a word that ends with a vowel, and “employer” is not, so, you know.
