They should know better!

If I see one more designer or printer use “stationary” instead of “stationery” — I’m gonna scream!
It’s like a chef not knowing how to spell “food” — one of the basics of the industry.
Stationary — not moving. Think if the “a” as AT a stop, standing still.
Stationery — paper, envelopes etc for letter writing, correspondence. Think of the “e” as EDUCATION — kids using paper to write stories in class.
Crikey. It’s not that hard!
Next thing you know, people will start using “it’s” instead of “its” and “your” instead of “you’re” — hmmmm.
