This is lame, but because I’m still laughing at it, I’m gonna post it.
Mass email to all courtrooms from my supervisor this morning:
Please let me know with the hour whether or not you have an “imperative” case set in your Courtroom tomorrow.
Thanks.
P.S. I arrived late this morning. Sorry for the short notice. I will use mare common sense the next time.
My email response back to him (yes, within the hour, as requested):
Wow, mare common sense? Neigh, you have the common sense of a stud!
Sorry, couldn’t resist. No imperative cases set tomorrow unless we get a trial from F today.
I saw him in the elevator after lunch and he was too emphatic in his hello to me, so I knew he’d read the email. I asked if he was offended, and he said that he’s “unoffendable” by now and admitted he did enjoy my email because I didn’t just write “You wrote ‘mare’ when you meant ‘more,’ you idiot” like most people would’ve done if they wanted to call someone out on something. Hee hee!
Yeah you could have, but it wouldn’t have been as funny. Unless people don’t know “mare” is a word, then they wouldn’t find your email either.
That was hilarious–what a good sense of humor. You probably brightened his day more than you know…and you also didn’t bash any male ego he might have–you made light of his mistake and ended up making him smile. SMART GIRL.
Earlier this morning he popped his head in my courtroom and said, “I’m about to write another equine email, so get ready.” I said, “I’m always ready.”
