At my first job as a junior marketer, there was a guy in the office who always made silly spelling and grammar mistakes in his emails. At first it was funny, but soon his writing \u201ccurrant condition\u201d instead of \u201ccurrent condition\u201d and \u201cband\u201d instead of \u201cbanned\u201d started to make me crazy. As a joke, I sent him misspelled emails for a week. And you know what? He didn\u2019t even notice.<\/p>\n
