My company has converted its foreign travel reporting system to an on-line form. This is, generally, an advantage. But I had to do the long form for a an upcoming trip and ran into something which astounded me.

One section has to do with the purpose of the trip and has boxes to check. I checked "vacation" and a box came up asking for an explanation. I was tempted to copy in the dictionary definition of the word or to cite the corporate policy on vacation. Instead, I wrote "sightseeing, eating French food."

(There are some other issues with the form, but that was the most egregious one.)
