Title should read: SS owes everyone on this board and the other board her deepest apologies.
Also, 1st sentence last word no should be deleted.
I guess I should calm down and take a deep breath before posting in anger!

Sorry about the typos
I meant to type she said she could not hire someone who could not follow directions. My mind went before my fingers on that one.
I apologize for the typos.
I guess I shouldn't try to type when I'm upset. 
Grammar and typos
I believe that Goldbird posted the same thing about there being no need to correct people on the board for typos or grammatical errors. There's really no need.
We all make typos!
Daphne,
Let me tell you one thing. I am not perfect and I did not proof my work in typing this note. I was just typing my fingers away and going from one chat to another. That was very unprofessional of you as an MT, supervisor, owner, etc., for you to throw your HATEFUL comments at me about me making a grammar error about worse versus worst. We all make mistakes. I have seen so many owners make mistakes. We are not perfect humans. We all make mistakes. Grow up!!!! You are acting like a child. I appreciate the Administrator on MT Stars to respect me as an individual and realizing that I make mistakes, but you should not advertise on this chat board to thousands of MTs about how stupid I am about making a grammar error where I forgot to proof my work. Why don't you go through every single one of these responses and start editing every single MTs grammar. I can guarantee you will find just as many errors like you did mine. Please be careful what you say in the future. Thanks again MT Stars administration for looking out for me regardless if I made a typo on my grammar!
Well, at least I can laugh at my typos - sm
some of ya'll seem to take them way, WAY to seriously. (And to hopefully avert any more flaming about being sloppy in my work, I'm TALKING ABOUT silly little mistakes we make when we're dashing off quick posts & emails.) And do you really think my thread is actually TESTIER than some of the total ragging that's been going on whenever someone on these boards stands up and calls a spade a spade?
Not!
Please excuse the typos...been up since 4 a.m.!
nm
Not really. Typos happen.
`
Typos happen, but
That is why you proof, and proof again, a document that is important to the image of the company. It looks extremely unprofessional!
Were the typos there for a reason maybe? nm
.
few typos in that last post...
I did already email the ones who asked.
Hope we all find the perfect company and make really great money!
Ahh Shux on the typos-
I thought I had an editing option before it posted. Be kind typing police :)
Love the typos in the ad....
65 charter count and trasncription, LOL!!!
Sorry for the typos in the post above, I am
just taken aback by this sudden news and the words are coming out pretty quickly. The correct words are They and going. Sorry for typos.
sorry for the typos...long day---lol
nm
I'm more offended by the typos in the ad. nm
I agree with this regarding typos, but not a
grammar mistake that appears in the same post over 10 times, this really makes me cringe.
IMO if one is too tired to post without making 'cringing' grammar mistakes, then just log off and go to bed.
Tomorrow is another day!
Don't have my readers on, sorry for typos
dd
Excuse the typos please

One more thing - sorry for any typos. It is bedtime! nm

I do agree with some of your post but 6 TYPOS..sm
I do agree with some of what you typed - the small mindedness and all that, but you definitely do have 6 typographical errors just in that little post and yes, it's just a bulletin board.....but if one is a master MT, well that reflects usually in everything that passes through their hands...including some internet posting on forums/boards.
just my nickel's worth....
Excuse my typos. Not enough coffee yet! :) nm
s
Sorry for the typos. Up past my bedtime.
nm
oops sorry the typos - my 1st post.
You definitely cannot tell I have 19 yrs of experience by that post!! Yikes. Sorry about that. I think you can figure out what I mean, though. Thanks for your help.
Don't mind the typos - just woke up!!

sorry for any typos above...doing 3 things at once...NM inside
xx
yes - excuse the typos in above post please. nm

oops. Lots of typos. How about "you just cant WIN" maybe I need a nap@@@
Please excuse the typos. I typed fast as this
is such a hot subject with me. I should have proofed before I hit post. The content of the message is 100%, although the QA did not pass well. Forgive me!
pardon the typos on "Advice needed"
nm
I have big compassion for typos typed in haste
or even anger! Everybody does this.
But the errors that I pointed out are not done out of haste or anger, these are done out of lacking of grammar and spelling skills.
Done repeatedly, in this post 10 times the same mistake!
It is MT
MTs for plural
in the 60s, not in the 60's
etc....
Forgive the typos above, I was thinking faster than I was typing...
That's what happens when you drink too much coffee.LOL
In defense of poster with typos...Sometimes when you use so many expanders(fortunately = fty for me
so I bet she is a high producer 'cause she has awesome expanders... don't typos happen to you on the bo ards sometimes? Or you hit enter too soon and your post looks like a first-grader typed it out...
We shred all resumes with typos immediately w/o responding. sm
You would be surprised how many resumes that we receive have errors in them, both spelling and grammar. I am not a transcriptionist, so I am not overly picky about grammar, but at least spellcheck your resume. At least half of the resumes that we receive have spelling errors.
The emails count too. If you do not proof your email when I applying for a job, how do we know you will be more careful when transcribing?
At least 10% of the emails I receive have either no capitalization or no punctuation. I disgard those too. Someone who is too lazy to capitalize the first word of a sentence or use punctuation in an email applying for a position probably is too lazy to proof their work when transcribing.
This is not meant to be cruel, but it is the truth. The image you project when applying for a job is very important, even if not face-to-face.
Shoot scuse my typos...tired...bad docs...long day...
 
fingers not working properly. Please ignore the typos. Need my coffee.
nm
sorry about typos..typing too fast without proofing, as this subject really irritates me.nm.

Company emails and paperwork with lots of typos and misspellings
I recently started working with a small MTSO. In just about every email from the owner, I see typos, misspelled and misused words. Also, the same goes for all paperwork I have received. Even the QA manager does the same thing.
Would you bring such things to their attention?
Things AREN'T so rosy, I meant and pardon the typos - nm
nm
My point was to show that these are NOT typos, but grammar mistakes, comprende?!..nm
nm
Just remember... proofread! You had a bunch of typos in that long-winded post!

typos on this board are to be forgiven, but new company's numerous errors and the picture they
painted for our first impression of someone in whom we are required to put practically our entire life details in an email back to them left much to be desired in my opinion (by this MT).
Frustrating situation at TransTech makes me make typos here on this board . . .
I have figured out a way to pay my bills with such **old, wornout** words
HAVE NOT figured out a way to pay my bills with . . .
You're -- not your okay typos fixed -- irritates me about you pregnant girls getting wonderfu
benefits from TT.
ps: Please excuse typos! "Hands-working-faster-than-brain syndrome!" haha (nm)
.
typos are one thing (inadvertent), but poor grammar is a poor reflection and demonstrates lack..
of knowledge. In this profession, if you lack proper grammar knowledge, you should expect to receive comments from those MTs who take pride in producing top quality work. Just my opinion, but I think it is quite embarrassing to see inproper use of the english command from those who profess to be MTs. There's a difference between typing a message here and having a slip of the finger and just not knowing proper word forms and spelling. I see grammer quite often, dependible etc. I truly do no believe these are simple typos, sorry.
