One qualification generally required of inspectors is good written and oral communication skills. As inspectors, and to conduct ourselves in a professional manner, all written communications should be double checked for spelling and grammatical errors. Well written, well spoken communication by an inspector is paramount in our daily functions to gain respect from our peers as well as subordinates.
Now, with that said, I do not feel it is anybodies place in this forum to judge or point out that someone made a mistake on something so irrelevant. Albeit this forum is full of professionals, I come to this site for advice and help on subjects that I do not quite understand or have not experienced yet. Now, when someone is kind enough to take the time to answer my questions, I am extremely greatful and not judgemental to that person if they misspelled a word, or made any kind of typo. I come for advice...not to see how many people don't double check their posts.
Although in business, I make every attempt to double check everything I write or type so that my business associates do not think I'm illiterate, I'm not ashamed to make mistakes in a forum when sometimes I am pressed for time and do not double check everything. After all, every e-mail I have ever sent would be full of spelling mistakes (due to accidently hitting wrong key) if it weren't for spell check. To bad this site doesn't offer spell check. Maybe if it did, there would be less meaningless posts pointing out a spelling errors.
To all who have replied and offered advice (with correct or incorrect grammer, punctuation, and spelling) to anything I have ever posted....THANKS!

P.S. If I misspelled anything.....Tuff S**T
