Hatches, matches and dispatches
It takes a great deal of tact and care to handle newspaper births, deaths and marriages notices. Especially the deaths.

A pity then that most of these calls are handled by internal call centres staffed by ... well, people who can't get a better job.

Thus a notice appeared in a paper I once worked for announcing the death of a much-loved old lady "after a long illness crazily borne".

"Crazily"? "Courageously", perhaps?

Fucking illiterate muppets.
