I thought the poor woman doing it was frankly dotty. Were I to meet her ernest brand of helpfulness I would be beating a hasty retreat.

She should have got a friend to give her an opinion. Even the most reserved friend would surely have suggested it wasn't good.

It's funny isn't it? For the first few months I 'knew' when I came home if my husband was dealing with a contractor as I could tell from his speech....now I know if it's work, or rarely, service related....and they tell me that they aren't obsessed with who does what with whom? They speak very differently depending on the person on the other end of the message. I want to speak like a member of whatever club that will enable me to succeed

I say "for sure" all the time now...and "Right"... I had to canadianize my speech because of where I was working... Besides when in Rome...

I'm technically Canadian and I try to use UK English speak and spelling. It baffles people. I like that.
