Way too much time on my hands

“Dear Nivea,
I would like to complain about your current advert for Men's deodorant containing silver. It begins “Who would of thought...”. This is some of the worst grammar I've ever seen. It should be “Who would HAVE thought...” or, at the very least, “Who would've thought...”. Every time I see it on the tube I get really angry (as does the rest of the editorial department I work in). Perhaps employing a proofreader might be a good idea?
Best wishes,
Emma”
