Tues, 21st Nov Speaky de Eengleesh

You would think that an employee who is intelligent enough to be given a job working with complicated computer technology in business they would be able to tell the difference between "an unfair delibarate act" and a class of farm animal livestock, but apparently this is not the case. I found this snippet from a call logged in a spreadsheet (because Toxic LOVES spreadsheets).

"At this point IE (the group)were engaged for advice and it was decided as a test, to deploy early an imminent Java client update (v1.5) via radia to see if this allowed the application to open within IE (the browser)

We then fell fowl of the Radia client 843 issue and had to wait for that to be fixed."


You will also note the deft double-whammy use of both ambiguous acronyms (the bits in green) and the unfortunate malapropism.

Marvellous!
