I am confused about whether I should write "I work at registrar's office" or "I work in registrar's office"

  • Welcome to the site. You would likely find English Language Learners a better fit for this question. – Carl Smith Aug 23 '15 at 07:24
  • You can say that you work in the* registrar's office* or at the* registrar's office*. – Carl Smith Aug 23 '15 at 07:25
  • @sumelic -- The part the OP is unsure about is clear: Should they say they work at or in the registrar's office, which seems like a bad fit for this site to me. – Carl Smith Aug 23 '15 at 07:29

  • +1 I take back the bit about it being a better fit for ELL. – Carl Smith Aug 23 '15 at 07:34
  • To be honest @sumelic, I think you were a little bit rude here today. Not in a serious way, but enough to annoy. I only suggested the other site, and you dismissed me in two words, then accused the OP of expecting a proof reading service. +1 for the duplicate, but -1 for manners. – Carl Smith Aug 23 '15 at 07:45
  • 'we already have several questions about this topic' ... So why don't we have a few close-votes here? – Edwin Ashworth Aug 23 '15 at 08:14
