So, pronunciation. Why do people leave out t's, r's,g's, etc? Have we become that lazy? Or is it the texting world that has lead to this? I listened to a College Educated Political Appointee on a Teams meeting the other day and she shortcutted several words multiple times. Even news people, who get paid to speak well, do this. Drives me nuts.

Our CEO of the old coop would have plant wide meetings 1-3 times a year. A fellow worked said "have you noticed he says ahhhh a lot in his pauses"? Every meeting thereafter that's all I could hear. Educated guy too.
