"final", "finals" c'mon who gives a monkey's! I am all for prompt, correct rt So which is it? Are you all for correct R/T, or don't you give a monkeys?
I take a lot of pride in my rt although I am the first to admit that occasionally I make mistakes like I am sure everyone does, the important thing is to learn from them. Unfortunately far to many people are too casual, flipant, not sufficiently up to date and most annoyingly not confident enough.
To set the record completly straight I am all for prompt, correct rt but I am not anal enough to give a stuff over someone adding an 's' to a word. Fortunately the vast majority of controllers out there are very professional and able to use their common sense. As for accents, as long as the person's speech is clear it is unimportant although maybe it would be a good idea if we all spoke irish!
