[QUOTE="frank kayser, post: 147283, member: 28"] Re: Am I just whining or is this stupid (Rigging) JR - Your observations are spot on in the business world, and enough in the legal realm to void some contracts. I had been pretty tolerant when at work of grammatical and spelling errors, but I did work with a person I considered very mainstream and level headed that would pretty much discount an entire paper at the first error. I thought it was a bit extreme, but no amount of discussion would change his mind. I do wonder just how much important communication is lost due to those rigid attitudes combined with the carelessness of document creation. I really would be interested to see how the current casual written communication (texting) will impact the business and legal worlds in the next 20 years or so. As you mentioned, I see more and more errors in the news, magazines, and even the scrolling text on TV. Editors aren't what they used to be. Back OT... Everyone is entitled to a mistake, but not all professions can tolerate them, engineering and rigging being those without. frank [/QUOTE]
