Fun game. I will send it to our secretaries who enjoy “hunting and pecking the keyboard” instead of efficiently typing.

Kinda makes me wish I had learned to type.

I wish I would have known of a company like that in high school. I had a bulldog of a woman typing teacher who would whip our hands with rulers if we weren’t keeping up a certain speed. Hurt like #$@#.

By the end of the semester, we were all typing above 80 wpm (one girl could sustain ~150 for easier transcriptions, I typed 100-120). Best and worst teacher ever.

I know a place that will hire you at 40 wpm. But you have to keep that average up over 8 hours. They pay $6.15 an hour!

I think the single letter part is also hard because previous letters obscure the current letter when they fly out at you.
