Of course I do the job but complain with the client that, if they want a correct translation, they have to provide correct source texts.

I'm don't trust them as much contains a typo, still most of us voted that - was this intended?
I know that I write with typos on the PC or smartphone, which I don't when writing by hand... So I laugh a bit and check what it is about.
