Surely a rather simple job as long as you have a complete understanding of your written language.
Came across something I have never seen in my life in a released printed work.
Reading Bryce Courtenay’s book, The Potato Factory, as printed;
“Mary now became conscious that, in the short time she’d been in Mr Goldstein’s office, the warehouse had short time she’d been in Mr Goldstein’s office, the warehouse had filled with the hum of people going about their work”
I had a friend who was a proofreader for the Sydney Morning Herald, they were all removed (sacked) in the late 70s
