I don't think terms like "Fuck-ups" or "screwed" should belong in corporate communications, start-up or not. It's cool they are talking about this openly, but unfortunately what I took from their write-up is that their communication style is less than professional.

I don't care what language they use, personally. However I am at work and having the F-word in 72pt font blaring from the top of my browser made scroll down very quickly. I doubt my bosses would be thrilled to see that.

Man, I'm sorry, but what sort of job do you have where seeing the word "Fuck" is like an actual job risk?

[protonfish]

It pays awesome and is easy work. If the handbook prohibited saying the word "zucchini" under penalty of dismissal I'd happily strike the word from my vocabulary.

Sorry, fuck-up is an acceptable professional term now. A fuck-up is an error that is so bad that from CEO to customer, there is no sense in calling it anything other than what it is. Send 10 emails at once to a customer? Sorry, we fucked up. Lose 25% of revenue for several months? Sorry, CEO, I fucked up. It is an admission that you have made an error that will happen less than once a year and hopefully only once a career.
