- a: Here's the graphic we'll be using for the ad.
b: Wow! This is terrific! It really jumps out at you, doesn't it? - (at the headquarters of a large restaurant chain in Tokyo)
a: You'll have to redo these menus. I found five English spelling mistakes.
b: Do you really think customers will notice?
a: Our English-speaking customers will. The misspelled words jump right out at you. - (reporting on an inspection trip to a franchise store)
The first thing that jumped out at me was the sloppy appearance of the staff. Half of them were wearing jeans.
OUTstanding!
