3. Dear Employee

Honestly, I'd have given you the day off for ingenuity and comic relief. However, there is snow outside. IS. Thank you for drawing my attention to your need for continued education. Please feel free to conact me once you have attained it. Your Ex-Boss

6. No, "are" is proper grammar. "Inches" (well, centimeters) is plural,

"of snow" is prepositional.
:D

8. It's a measure noun prhase

One complete unit, as I understand it.

9. Okay, if you say so. I read the piece at your link and it made my head hurt.

Those 2 screwballs went way out of their way to produce a moronic screed...

4. I really did call in "well" one time.

"I'm feeling to good to come in to work today, I'm going to the beach instead."
Of course, I was in a position where I could get away with that...

5. Stay home and drink

a metric six-pack.

7. Oh please! Some of us have to deal with REAL snow.
