Annoyed by all the Spelling Police here...

Do you not have lives? Honestly, I get a bonus for my work being 100% QA correct for going on 6 months now without one single error. When I am here, however, or in casual email to friends, I don't sweat over every capital letter, every spelling, every little typo. Why should I? You Spelling Police aren't paying me!

I just get so sick of seeing people with no lives correcting everyone for what are obviously typos or just careless spelling errors or the wrong word here or there.

If you want to correct people, get a job in QA. But give it up. This is a message forum, and unless you're paying me 8.5 cents a line, don't complain if I make a mistake!

(I have yet to be corrected on this board, but every time I see someone making some snooty little comment, it just makes me want to suggest to them some hobbies. Macrame. Scrapbooking. Something!)

    I know there is supposed to be no spelling police,
    but when you are giving the must have excellent "grammer" talk, you should at least spell grammar correctly. 
    Um, not to be the spelling police, but I believe you left out an

    You're right, there are no spelling police allowed on this board. sm
    So it constantly amazes me that a few of you spend your time running around breaking the rules "correcting" those of us who make honest mistakes. That's what a spellchecker is for. Get a life!

    I did a search and found this company:


    http://www.sten-tel.com/legal.asp


    They offer all types of transcription

    I don't know much about police transcription other than it's very, very hard to get into, I think mainly because there aren't that many cities that use it and so many people want to type it.
    Opppsss..Nice spelling,huh? lol...
    I am interested in joining the group. Please let me know how to join.

    Thank you!


    Most services are looking more for proper spelling, grammar, and
    sentence structure than they are layout.  I don't give a hoot what the layout looks like because I have my own way of doing things that I train the MT on how to do upon hire. 
    Not true, I made a 95 once. But grammar and spelling
    are key issues as stated below. 
    There is no need to correct grammar or spelling mistakes on this board. (NM)

    aren't we lucky this site has you to correct our spelling/grammar usage.
    maybe you should consider editing.
