Mess is over, for another year at least

I work in a factory. It’s a place that’s kind of away from the public eye, so we get a lot of new immigrants and many of them aren’t too confident in their english skills. It’s not too bad since most of the things we tend to say are rather simplistic, though every once in a while I run into a situation that I just don’t know how to approach. We had one person writing “Fed” instead of “Feb” on our document dates. Yes, someone should do something about it, but that’s one that I’m not touching. At the end of the month, I saw a document with numbered dates, so hopefully we won’t run into this again next year. It’s kind of mean that nobody has told him about it yet. Having everyone kind of snicker behind his back is far worse in the long run than someone giving him a gentle nudge and saying that ‘b’s go in the other direction. I don’t really know him that well, but if I had to guess, I’d say this guy has been in the country for over a year already. Well, if I see this happening again next year, I’m going to ask a supervisor to do something. This is just done for now.
Just to clarify, nothing against immigrants here, but I do look down at management for this. I see supervisors run around checking things out all the time and well, if this is the standard they want to set, than I’ll let them be content with what they have.
