Funny In translation
Project Manager asks Proofreader/Editor about proofing some videos in other languages today.
She asks what/how she would be proofing this? She speaks French in addition to English yet none of the videos are in French.
He states that it is just to verify that the tags/description are in there like requested. It was created by the company so they have verified the information to begin with.
He also says that he may have more videos in Italian by the end of the day. You don't speak italian?
She says, fettuccini alfredo...
And the writer sitting at the next desk Chimes in Yea, Canolli.
Project manager says, yea great because this is specifically an alfredo and cannoli video. (sarcasm)
