I have to agree with you. I was reading the notes from a MANAGERs' meeting where I work. All handwritten on a flip chart in the coffee room and noticed these gems.

When you go on a coffee BRAKE ?

When you HERE the phone ring ?

Everyday I encounter people who can neither spell nor count. I gave a customer the price of 2 items. One was $10.00, the other was $ 13.00, his remark " SO thats about $21.00 for both" nearly floored me, he was not joking either.

God I hope i have no mistakes in this reply.
