How many of you actually read what you wrote before hitting the submit button?

Question

I always read first. I don't like misspellings or perhaps something doesn't sound right & it needs to be corrected. Do some people think it's a race to answer the question the quickest?

Answer 1

Judging by some of the answers, I think there are people who think this is some kind of race. If you got more points for being first I could understand. I read and re-read and check spelling, so I'm with you one this one! But not everyone can be as perfect as we are!! ;-)

Answer 2

If it is a short answer usually not because I think I should be able to get that done accurately. The ones longer than 5-6 words well we all make mistakes and I'm freak in that everyone must notice just how prefect I am.

Answer 3

I always check what I have put down makes sense. I always check for misspellings too because I am just obsessive like that.

Answer 4

I always re-read my answers before I submit them because i also don't like to have spelling mistakes and I want to check to see if it all makes sense.

Answer 5

I must admit I'm hit and miss with reading it before hand. Depends if the boss is in the office.

Answer 6

I always read it again. I hate it when people misspell on their own questions.

Answer 7

yes we do....I usually find out I've made a typo when I read it after it comes up with the other answers, then I hit "edit", but in lieu of that, it is still correct.

Answer 8

I normally do, but it all depends on if I'm in a hurry because some one is looking over my shoulder and I would hate to get fired.

Answer 9

I do. I try to always make sure what I write is correct.

Answer 10

I don't check if it's one-line answers, but for more in-depth question/answer, I check.
