They were certainly looking tired…

The executive sponsor of a bid that one of our colleagues has been managing circulated a note to the team last week, congratulating them on their work on the proposal that had just been submitted. It started:

“Dead Team,

I just wanted to write to thank you…”

Needless to say, the correction followed close behind:

“I obviously meant ‘Dear’ and not ‘Dead’”

That said, there are times when you’ve worked up to the wire to get the document together when the original phrase may feel just a tad too close to the truth!
