:: Friday, March 07, 2003 :: Yesterday, I used twice the phrase "place of employment" (as in, "I need to call my place of employment"), and each time I received strange stares from those listening. Sheesh. Some people just have no appreciation for well-crafted, pedantic speech. I'd rather say "place of employment" anytime than say that ear-grating word, "jooooaaarb" (job).
