My close friends and family are even more sticklers than my colleagues.

Afterall, it is my family who always instilled in one another the importance of spelling and grammar. We had it reinforced at home before we got to the outside world. It used to frustrate me when I was a kid because we could only use "slang" if we were clearly joking. If we were serious we would get stopped and corrected to the point where we sometimes forgot the point of what we were saying.
