I wrote a memo yesterday at work. I rarely talk about my work. You can get in trouble for that sort of thing.¹
So, I wrote this memo. It began like this, “…claims for missing items are eating our lunch…” Not one of my employees, who range greatly in age, gender²,³ and geographic origin, has heard this saying.
Have you?*
¹ I probably wouldn’t get in trouble but why take the chance. My dog likes to eat well.
² we have four
³ I’m trying to be inclusive since June is Gay and Lesbian Pride Month and I like rainbows
* I even googled and couldn’t find the saying.
