Ok so who is from England? Also do the Canadians use the same spelling as the English? Being a Canadian myself, I can say that much of us do whatever we please, actually. We're supposed to properly follow the British spelling, but I spell both ways. Whatever my fingers type, I go with it. My fingers have no allegiance to American or British spellings. XD

*Runs through the office getting coffee for everyone* I brought donuts everyone. If you want them just come ask. I will be in my cubicle all day today getting together a presentation for tomorrow. *runs into office sets down coffee and gets to work* (OOC: Just wondering but how long is the day? I want to wait to vote but i don't want to get left out ) mmmm donuts. I think it's Dom because he was quick to react at the beginning >.>

Based off of grammar and such, my suspicions are falling on Dove, Nightwalker, and Mr. Spartan.

I've got a question for Americans. Do you always unfailingly spell the American way? Or is there a word or two that you might spell differently once in a while?

*Runs through the office getting coffee for everyone* I brought donuts everyone. If you want them just come ask. I will be in my cubicle all day today getting together a presentation for tomorrow. *runs into office sets down coffee and gets to work* (OOC: Just wondering but how long is the day? I want to wait to vote but i don't want to get left out ) mmmm donuts. I think it's Dom because he was quick to react at the beginning >.> I'm having fun, don't ruin it In all seriousness, I tend to overuse commas, not underuse them. Also, I rarely, if ever, use the english spelling of word, with the exception of theatre and colour for some reason. Also I'll tell you straight up, if it was me there would be at least two or three smileys per memo. *Ends the conference call and rushes out to Office Max to get more toner for the printer*

From the spelling of Labor.
It may be a stretch but it is something. Also looking at the post closely i might guess the person was from England or some place like that. I don't say rubbish a lot do they?

True. Garbage is the term more often used over here. But I guess if you're trying to sound authoritative it might be used.

The person may be trying to trick us also. But when it was pointed out about that spelling i did think the post sounded a bit British/Canadian.

*Returns from Office Max, realizes the stapler is broken, and goes back out to get a new stapler, but not before putting in his two cents*
Honestly, I think it was typed that way to throw us all off. Why focus on that? If'n they tawked liek dis, would you guys look for some noobish guy or someone who never has proper grammar?

I think I'm going to go with the same thing on British person, since I only chose Dom earlier to say something

I think it was subtle enough to look not on purpose. If the boss was totally brilliant then ok but with the people on this forum i doubt he would think of something like that...

^I take that as an insult to everybody on the forum. You must be the boss, can I please have a promotion? ;D
*Sends his email then begins working on a powerpoint on the importance of advancement in the workplace for his seminar next Thursday. Having finished all of his work for the next 10 days, Dom figured the seminar was the best place to continue until the boss can give him more work*
