Comment on Comma use guide

For fun, let’s all try using the Shatner comma in a work meeting.
works great when verbally giving someone a phone number… almost always messes 'em up. instead of usual cadence of ‘312, 867, 5309’… try something different like ‘312, 86, 75, 309’ or ‘3128, 675, 309’.
“So that phone number will be Thirty One, Two Hundred Eighty Six, Seven, Five Hundred Thirty, Nine”
I’m putting that number on a list for “yes please call me so we can talk about if Surfak is right for me”.
I really hope it’s yours.
