I am plagued by typos. Mostly my own.
When I went through the application process to work at Jellyvision last October, I scoured my resume, cover letter and, later, writing samples for typos. After several interviews I was offered a contract position by Amanda. In my e-mail thanking her, I spelled the word "probably" wrong. Three times.
Amanda would remind me of this even up into my last weeks at Jellyvision.
Amanda: You spelled it wrong the same way three times. "Probalby." I thought, "He really thinks the word is 'probalby'." I asked Steve-o if we should rescind the job offer. You almost lost the job. Probalby!
I'm starting a new project at Jellyvision on Monday. Back to work.

I had the following email exchange just after writing this post.
"Don't worry... you're long time of darkness is almost over. I will be back in the office, brightening everyone's day on Monday.
Arnie"
"'your' long time of darknessā¦ just fyi. See you then.
Sigh,
Amanda"
