You…are a financial institution. YOU should employ people with typing skills that include proper ENGLISH. Words per minute doesn’t count unless you’re typing full words, ok? And don’t even get me started on the all-caps thing.

Note to self: Don’t trust banks that can’t employ intellegent typists.

Back to school work now. Just had to share that.
