        Yes. For instance if someone was applying for a job and used the letter for the word, they surely would never work for me. I would always see them as lazy and illiterate, even if they could prove it wasn't so.
        On the other hand, if an employee/crew member did it, say in the boat's log book, they would get one warning never to do it again. One and only one.

          I can understand where you're coming from but just wanted to point out that Bill Gates once said "I will always hire a lazy person to do a hard job because they will find an easy way of doing it"
          Not sure of his views on illiteracy...
