Hell my contract at my first job was full of typos. Easier to not give a shit than to fix something.
But Lucy, that means to a inspector that your company hasn’t done any Auditing on your Temperature Log procedures.. Or just means you are lazy..
And i agree with Phill, heck i would do the same thing.
But guess why i left the business. Not for people like Lucy, she knows quality.
But for people a-like Mell in charge of HR, not giving a shit about the quality of the work, just keep hiring people until you find the cheapest who will still keep doing the job..
And in case you wonder why European DataCenters are so expensive.. .. .. .. I already left for over five years. what you see is the Cheapest! with not giving shit, bottom-line sucking management.
What’s funny is the typo joke is something from my job where a sheet has had a type on it for years. What’s even funnier is that it WAS updated once but they only changed the new stuff and left the old stuff unchanged – including the typo! They’ve fixed it in similar forms but for that original one I still need to use – it’s still there. I’m pretty sure it’s on purpose at this point, heh.
Our D&A department (Documentation & Archive) has a document correction officer. He is french, and he once showed me the amount of shit he gets passed by.
Usually from interns or externals asking for documents to be corrected ‘correctly’.. When he showed me he had over 2700 changes denied with flag ‘English as English’ Containing the usual request for American spelling.. it was that Colour, behaviour, Sceptical, etc.
But you are right, a lot of typo’s remain in the world forever. The main stairwell of my apartment complex’s doubles as fire stairs as people should be taking the elevators primarily. All floors have there own doors and all residences have a key + pass, But those doors are labelled ‘No Entrence!..
And i should i mention it survived a repainting a few years back..

I prefer Phil’s way of thinking.
