It's not the equipment. Check the spelling.

D'oh.

 

It comes back to the "You don't see typos" thing that was popular a few years back.

Back in the very bad old days I learned letterpress printing (and even operated a Linotype). The printer who taught me gave two bits of advice - one is a coomonplace, never proofread your own work. The other was to hold the page upside down, so that you would be forced to look at each letter rather than looking at the text word by word.

Is "coomonplace" a deliberate typo here? :D

One that apparently EVERYONE WHO MATTERS sees is when you get the second c and the o the wrong way round when you're writing accounts...

 

I'll leave the resulting word for you all to work out.

Many years ago, in a different job, a letter was sent to "The Public Health Officer" - only it was a bit more specific on the area of the body that was/wasn't healthy

Made that typo too many times, in the end I set up an autocorrect rule to change it!

I once spent about 6 months with a typo in my own name in my email signature. If anybody noticed, they didn't tell me.

 

I only noticed when composing an email to all staff with instructions for setting themselves an email signature, which included a quip about making sure to proofread their own name. Doh.

 

Yeah, I've since automated them!

The SBB ticketing system:

 

Are you able to paste these logs into a text document and attach instead of pasting into the ticket reply? Due to the hub formatting it is difficult to read.

 

Hub formatting turns every reply ticket entry or reply update for customers into a single continuous line of text with word wrap. It does maintain formatting if you email a reply, but that doesn't recognise any tables or images.
