A few days ago, I needed to reach out to a colleague in France to confirm some project deadlines. Thinking I’d save time, I used a translation app to write my message. That turned out to be a mistake! Instead of confirming the original deadline, the app made it sound like I was asking to move the project to a completely different month. My colleague’s confused reply left me scrambling to clarify that the deadline remained the same. Lesson learned: always double-check before sending!
