It's hard to be taken seriously as a manager when your messages are overflowing with typos and misspellings. If you expect your employees to follow rules, you can't have those rules read like straight-up gibberish. Moreover, if you expect your employees to be careful with their tasks, you should probably consider, I don't know, spell check. Some of these typos are so egregious a 5-year-old could spot them.
This thread was posted to Reddit by u/Such_Recover_777, who provides some more backstory in the comments section after posting the photo of her boss's ridiculous message. Once again, it just goes to show that managers can be incredibly tone-deaf in their messaging and can lack even an iota of self-awareness in their rules and practices. Not letting people listen to music with headphones as they're completing tasks? Not even letting them take out their phones when they're on break? That's not a workplace; that's a prison.
