The stupid, it burns....

I just got a talking-to from my very-amused manager, who was apparently confronted by an offended personage of some sort, because I sent the following announcement to the supervisors, one of whom forwarded it verbatim to their team:

Hot off the presses is the Cup Cavalcade for this week in the Fresh Training section, wherein you and your minions will learn everything you could possibly want to know about the cups we sell to our customers!

Apparently, a few folks had to look up not only "minion," but "cavalcade" as well.

Calgon, get me the fuck out of here!
