So I’m sitting and preparing “essay” questions for my organizational design exam a few days ago and I’m writing the paragraph you see on the right. I write the word entrepreneurial, and I really expect to get the spelling wrong, it’s just one of those words that I never get right. Plus it’s 11PM and I’ve been writing for a few hours. So I write the word entrepreneurial and I’m waiting for the little red line underneath it to appear so I can find where my mistake is and fix it. Lo and behold: no little red line appears under the word. As I finish it off I think to myself “Whoa! Dude! I can’t believe I just spelled it correctly. Maybe it’ll take it a second…” Nothing.
After a few seconds of blinking and waiting I smile a smug smile and continue on with the word spirit.
Having finished my sentence I give it another look, still surprised at the lack of a red line. After a few seconds I realize that I’m writing on paper.

This is a known issue.
I’ve found a workaround by using a dictionary and a red pen, however it’s a bit of a pain. I’ve been bugging the distributor to make a real fix for a while but they keep claiming it’s “not a bug”, that I’m “misunderstanding the product” and they “have a restraining order”.
hahahahahhaa
