Hi Donna,
DR>Oh, ouch. My husband also says he's embarrassed to be with me some
times,
  >because I will go into those places and point out the spelling error.
I never have the nerve to do this. The one that annoys me the most is
when people put an apostrophe where it does not belong - usually in the
case of plurals. There is a sign just up the street on the back fence of
a house which reads: "Beware of Dog's" I keep wanting to write on it -
Beware of dog's what? (Teeth - I expect ) This is of course one of
the most common of mistakes in the classroom and drives me "nuts". ;)
DR>Yes. One of my jobs at the above company is to type inspector's 
andwritten
  >reports. I always fix spelling and obvious errors in grammar. My trainer 
was
  >furious: "you type those the way the inspector gave it to us!" I refused. 

  >went to the supervisor and explained it to her. She told me to fix the 
error
  >as long as I wasn't changing what was said. (I was fixing words like 
:their,
  >there, they're, or was/were, wear or where, etc.) My trainer was not 
happy, 
  >it was because I went over his head.
I always thought a secretary/administrative assistant/or whatever's job
was to fix all the spelling, etc. errors in the letters and reports. I
used to do the same thing and it was always appreciated. If I was the
boss I would doubt that trainer's right to do be in his job. What
exactly is he supposed to do?
That's all for this one...:)
