I hate managers who tell me my writing is bad because it is grammatically correct. I actually just had a manager rewrite an entire test script I wrote so it would be closer to "how people really talk." Now no one can understand it and I'm getting blamed for it because "Vanessa wrote it." Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr . . . Good grief, that is sad. I'm sorry to hear that, Vanessa.

"We want to you write professionally, just not too professionally."

Yeah, or "just start talking and write down what you say." Don't remember that in English class.
