Fellow punctuation nerds, get ready to smile! The 365-day Eats, Shoots and Leaves Calendar gem of the day is:
Sticklers unite. Do something.
And if possible, use a bright red pen.
Send back emails that are badly punctuated;
return letters; picket Harrods.
I have a pile of cover letters from applicants for our last job opening that I would love to edit with a bright red pen and send back. (I have coveted red pens since I was a little girl). Definitely have another professional proofread your cover letter and resume before sending, so that you get a gold star and not the "dread red pen"...
