I think the signs are directed at you.

My inner voice screams "For the love of god why can't educated people spell properly! it's courteous!

I've never seen a more non-correctly spelling bunch of people in my life than Engineers! I do it for a living, and I deal with them every day. It drives me bonkers!

Engineering is about details. C'mon, you can't spell correctly? Gimme a break!

Oh, I thought that's how the sign read. If it was just you typing it out, I expected it to be misspelled.

My general venting still applies though!

How the hell did you EVER get a degree?

On topic: There are some things [now] that should be expected - common sense is no longer common. I'm sometimes surprised that people don't forget how to breathe. I mean, we haven't told them HOW to.
