Anonymous
OP: Hopefully you do not coordinate travel for your boss. If you do, I hope for your sake that the boss never needs to travel to Portland.

I tried to post my typo but this website won't allow it. Replace a T instead of a G below.

Definitely ignore, especially now that some time has passed.

It’s fine, Op. just ignore.

I once concluded an email “thank you for your continued existence” (rather than assistance) harmless, but I was glad the recipient just ignored it.

Once when I was a nanny in college, the mom was going through multiple failed IVF attempts for another baby. Their child was sick and the mom asked if I thought they needed anything from the grocery store as she was stopping on her way home. I meant to suggest she get Pedialyte pops, but somehow my phone autocorrected to suggesting she get "fertility pops". I was absolutely mortified.

I've seen the L omitted from "public" more times than i can count. It's good for a quick immature chuckle then we all move on.

Living in Florida and shopping at Publix has made me immune to these chuckles.
