OK then,
Writing a letter to a customer which ended with the sentence:
"Please wait until after the end of March so that the final position can be determined"
and it coming out as:
"Please wait until after the end of March so that the final solution can be determined"
The customer was German...
Another one which could have been worse (in at least two different ways):
"I have sent a copy of this letter to your clint"
A colleague of mine ended a letter to a customer in his seventies:
"Please accept my apologies for any incontinence caused"
