No one wants to look unprofessional in a work email. I’m glad the commenters corrected her and provided both alternatives. The advice applies equally to “for gods’ sake” and “for heaven’s sake” – in this case, multiple gods and a single heaven.
I had heard that western Canadians don’t say “eh”, which kind of threw me off the scent, as it were. Once more WP has been a fount of knowledge and wisdom. Watch those double negatives. ✌ (Peace is the real victory)
You are right and I am excited, very excited, FUCKIN’ A! Now “FUCKING A!”, A being an indefinite article, is considerably less exciting. When it comes to fucking, especially FUCKING, I say the less uncertainty the better.
If it’s “for fucks’ sake,” then all the fucks are sharing a sake. Sharing doesn’t seem like something a fuck would do, so I think it should be “for fuck’s sake.” Each fuck gets its own sake, for Christ’s sake!

I always thought the “A” was for “Affirmative”. It kind of seems a shame.

Fuckin’ Eh! started in Canada, but when the Americans heard it they heard Fuckin’ A. So “A” aint for nothing.
