Survey show workers shud write better

I’m sorry, this is just TOO easy. Is this supposed to be a joke?

(Look closely at the headline.)

  • "3rd of employees" means "not the 2nd and not the 4th", but that's an obscure error.

  • You'd think they'd include at least one more mistake to make the joke a little clearer, but I've always found those headlines silly....
