[quote=Anonymous]Only one comment that I hope is constructive. I think the phenomenon of people regularly using incorrect grammar is horrible but is a tide we can't fight. As to your use of Honestly, my thought is that generally you should avoid using any word over and over in a short span of time. With the word Honestly, it is a legitimate criticism to say that using that word makes it seem like you are not always honest. I know that isn't true but it is like using the word "clearly" because you need to stress how clear something is when it really isn't. That was an early lesson in law school writing class--avoid clearly or obviously when trying to explain something unless it is actually clear or obvious. Using that word is either patronizing or a verbal tell that you are trying to oversimplify something complicated. Anyway, another view is that your work is generally so good that your boss was picking lint.[/quote]
