I don't know where this pet peeve comes from, but somewhere along the way, I became a spelling/grammar bitch. Nothing irritates me more than seeing misspellings and incorrect uses of words like their/they're/there. Come on! Why is it so hard to remember how these words work? And with all of the spell checking tools that we have, why do I still see things spelled wrong?
I'm my job, I have a lot of correspondence that happens through emails. You'd think at a professional level, people would click the spell check button. But no, they don't. I have become the proofreader in my office. Any time an official document is sent to a customer, they ask me to read it over and correct any spelling or grammatical mistakes. Well, thank Geebus for that! Someone's gotta do it!
