I Write Code!!
Yes folks, I mean it. Though I am in this same designation from the past three years (now this is altogether a different story), I can't spell the word of my designation, the "Programmer" (hopefully correct! didn't give a red underline).
Don't blame my teachers at my school. They did their cent and even I had put up my cent (may be more....hehehe) in my schooling days. The problem started in the recent past.
For sure, this IT industry has brought a lot of change. I don't know how much is that positive, but one among a lot of negatives is this problem. By the way, what should I name this problem?
Should I say it lack of grammar sense -- does not seem apt.
The so called famous dialog in IT industry "Lack of communication skills" -- Damn, it has nothing to do with communication.
May be I can name it something like "IT Laziness" -- Yeah, seems logical.
Don't get surprised as what this laziness has to do with wrong spelling. The problem here is not just a wrong spelling, more than that, a lot more. Adding to the sedentary working style, every ITer or ITian develops a hidden laziness in due course of time. We, software geeks, get used to auto word completions, spell checks, audio tutorials etc which make our life easy. But we forget that we are forgetting our basics.
How many of us carry a pen with us (though you may always have a laptop with you, at many times you will need a pen! Because many processes on this earth are not digitalized yet, they are still paper worked.)? How many of us use our brains to do some simple math rather than use calc in Run? How many of us confidently send a mail with out a spell check?
Its been three years now for me in this industry. This IT Laziness is at its peak with in me. I doubt I forgot how my hand writing looks like...Damn how pathetic!
