When spellcheck goes wrong
While typing a quick email to an administrative assistant today, I used a familiar sign-off, “Thanks again.” However, I typed “Thanks agina.”
Spellcheck kicked in with a helpful suggestion referring to a lady’s bajingo.
Can you imagine if I sent off an email to a woman with the closer, “Thanks vagina” on a college campus?
I saw my whole career flash before my eyes. I mean, I’ve been accused of being a sexist-pig, but that’s expected when you use the title “Mr. Computer Guy” when subscribing to a trade magazine.
