pet peeve?

Spelling


I know I am not perfect. I catch my errors too late many times, even though I use all forms of spell checks, google documents, Microsoft Word, email, Wordpress, and Google Search.

What really gets me is when job descriptions have lots of misspellings? When the company's HR's are the ones who will overlook our resumes because of misspellings.

I just wrote a resume for someone else. I just discovered I misspelled one word. I make 7 copies and sent them to the person. He has no computer access.

I kick myself.

I thought I checked that one word and I didn't.

I always try to write a rough draft, spell check it, then copy and paste it.
