RE: Toughest Document to Write

I like these tips too, http://www.techwritingjobs.com/resume_bloopers.htm.

Technical *and* funny.

This reminds me of when my spell checker decided to ignore every word in my
resume eventhough it was checking.  Somehow, the language setting got
checked to not check words for spelling or grammar, so the checker was
enabled but the words were not checked.  I had some interesting misspellings
of words and I couldn't figure out why Word wouldn't highlight them.  I
didn't know that "operatoins" was a word.  Is that something that's found at
an opera?
