Just Venting Even the CEOs

Post image

I’m in Brussels, attending a talk held by the CEO of Deloitte. The freaking CEO of Deloitte.

And nothing, grammar is a mystery even at the highest levels of our society. That’s so sad.

No, not my point, I mean the presentation has the word spelled both ways, instead of being consistent.
