Boss: All right, everyone, listen up. We need to have a little refresher on our grammar here at the office.
Let's start with the words "your" and "you're".
"Your" is possessive. It refers to something that belongs to you.
Larry?
Larry: Uh, yeah, boss? Boss: That's not how you use your keyboard!
Larry: Ooh ... ooh?
Boss: "You're", with an apostrophe, is a contraction of the words "you" "are".
Boss: Sam?
Sam: Uh, yeah, boss? Boss: You're playing online poker instead of working.
Sam: Ehhhhhhhhh....
Boss: If you mix up the words "your" and "you're", it can be really confusing.
For instance, there's a big difference between ...
Hey, don't forget your bananas ... Employee: Thanks! That's my lunch!
Boss: and ...
Hey, don't forget you're bananas.
Employee: Oh, yeah. I AM bananas.
