“There are four different kinds of bones in an organisation: wish-bones, who wish someone else would do it; jaw-bones, who talk a lot but do very little; knuckle-bones, who knock what everyone else does; and backbones, who do the work.”
William Wilkerson

Peter was telling a friend that he had just lost his job. â Why did the supervisor fire you?â the friend asked in surprise.Â
âOh,â Peter said, âyou know how supervisors are. They stand around with their hands in their pockets watching everybody else work.â
âWe all know that,â replied his friend. âBut why did he dismiss you?â
âJealousy,â answered Pete. âAll the other workers thought I was the supervisor.”
Do the Merriam-Webster ‘Spell It‘ quiz to see if you can spell the commonly misspelled words. They have lots of different versions, so you can play it again and again.
All you have to do is listen to the words, spell them out and then check to see how good you are. Good luck!
