Training

 

 

 

 

Due to the County's hostile takeover of my library system we employees here have all been subject to a sharp spike in online bureaucratic training. I could make fun of this time consuming, Kafkaesque dash of spice in my worklife, but I'm more of a "make lemonade" sort of person. So as I poured over what good I could turn this county training to it suddenly dawned on me: 

None of my readers has ever been formally trained in reading clerkmanifesto. 

Every one of you could be doing it wrong, or dangerously, or in a way that might reflect poorly upon the local authorities.

 So I have decided to present 1000 lessons for safely and properly reading my blog.

These lessons will be rolling out steadily for the next few years. This is only for your enjoyment. 

And to prevent dangerous errors.

Also, it is mandatory.

But don't worry. You've already completed the preamble!

  1. Thank you for the lemonade link.
    Can you tell me: why do word games (Scrabble, Words with Friends) no allow "ade" as a word, but crossword puzzles do.
    Which reminds me, crossword puzzle clues are getting WEIRD lately. Not bad, usually, but really weird.

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.

I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!

One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
