Wow!

Maybe you should "correct" it & send it back!

Are we sure this was a real company? If so, that's sad... Of course, when I worked for the Ritz, we had hired someone along the same lines and I never understood why. She didn't last long and I complained about her the entire time. A high level hotel chain should not be represented in such a manner. Sheesh.
