Grammar Nazi

Category: life

On the ongoing fight of grammar nazis for better grammar:

We recently purchased a new car.  (New being relative… it’s new to us, a ‘95 Corolla)  The other day, we got a letter in the mail telling us our license plates were ready.  This letter helped us by telling us what hours the dealership is open:

We are open Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 7:30 pm and 9:30 am to 4:00 pm.

Now, it took me a couple reads, but I’m pretty sure they meant to say “Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 7:30 pm and Saturday 9:30 am to 4:00 pm.”  From what I could tell, this was printed with a copy machine.  So, the dealership made a bunch of copies of a letter that doesn’t even make sense.  One would think that a dealership would hire someone to proof-read things like this.
