Cheeky proofing comment on a marketing plan. Couldn't help myself.
I don't work for the company but I'm sometimes asked to review a variety of documents because I'm known for being a perfectionist and did contract work for them eons ago.

The marketing analysis is for a software system intended for sale to broadcast media. It includes a section for "impact from political environment." The author wrote, "No political issues exist at this time that would impact this project."

I couldn't help it. My big red pen just had to write "OTHER THAN ENCROACHING FASCISM IN THE U.S." in the margin. I don't think the author was terribly amused, but the Product Line Manager thought it was "perceptive and relevant." So HAH!
