We all make errors, and sometimes, those errors can make us look like idiots. Especially when that error gets published out in the world, even though it likely went through a host of gatekeepers to get there. And that's why we're here. To shame those gatekeepers with an internet scarlet S. I don't expect you to be perfect. It takes a village, and every village has an idiot. But for the sake of your company's reputation, hire a village that has at least one member THAT CAN SPELL.

SO MANY WORDS

I've already lost the will to live. Have a look.

Legalese is always a bit of a trial to get through (see what I did there?), so the least they can do is try to make it a little less confusing, right? Use punctuation properly, choose the right words, etc. Check out the first bullet point: "...and for loss, damage OR delay of goods and baggage" is what they mean, I think. I'm honestly not even sure. There are so many words here, all in a row. I'm finding it hard to concentrate.

What is this business about them having the right to change the terms of the contract? Is that, like, while you're in mid-air?

What do you think? Are there other fixes you'd make? Adjustments? Any way to make it a little more interesting?

(Thanks, DC!)
