Thanks for this - Off versus off of OP

Posted: Dec 28th, 2015 - 8:58 am In Reply to: It's on the InnerCircle and available to everyone - sm

In all my years here, it only came up on an audit once and I didn't lose any points. I figured the auditor was wrong. I thought leaving off the "of" was tacky and not proper English! To the one who suggested padding lines, that is the first I have ever heard of that, too!! I feel like there is an MT underworld that I was unaware of!! Ha. Anyway, you learn something new in this job every day....or I still do. Thanks everyone.
