Lack Of Literacy Really Ticks Me Off

Nope. Wrong answer to my post. Let me offer a different example.


Hey honey, how much was the electric bill this month?
Answer: I paid it.
I know. I've been married for 51.5 years. I love my wife, but I bet I have to say, "Please answer the question I asked" at least 10 times a week.
I am a retired Air Force Officer, and after the USAF, I worked at the Federal Home Loan Bank in Topeka for about 20 years; first in Internal Audit and then in Market Risk Analysis. So, for 40 years of my life, vague and/or unclear written of verbal communication was NOT an option. I am so tired of people saying things that make sense to them, but the get upset if you don't understand. Example: Bob and Joe went to the store, and he bought a candy bar. Who bought the candy bar??? the person telling you knows, but they think you are a moron if you can't "read between the lines."
