The Editorial Math Nazi?

Google has become my friend at work. While I'm mostly good with answer checking math and identifying problematic concepts, my grammar skills are a bit rusty. Yet I feel like I'm going to become the grammar nazi at work as the editorial assistant. I've had to check up on a few things so far: that/which, parallel list structure, prepositional phrases (of which math people seem to use lots)and things like that. It's been interesting finding myself become more detail oriented with this job--and yet enjoying it! I'm also becoming more organized about my time and workspace. It's always nice to start at something with a completely empty space. I also think I'm going to become a stickler for consistency. We'll see....I'm still evolving into my new job persona.
