When I was a junior / senior in HS there was no internet, so any interaction with adults was really my parents, teachers, or the cops. No auto-correct or spell check on the typewriter either. There were no adults to read my writing outside of school, and my dad corrected my grammar to the best a drunk iron worker could. When I graduated, I knew the Velvet Creamery job was not going to fund a car, so there were two connections I had. Machinist, or carburetor repair tech, both starting positions and both good jobs. On both apps I did my best to sound mature and like I had experience, and both laughed me out of their companies for writing "buisness law" was a "coarse" I took blah, blah, blah. I didn't get those jobs even though I would have been an ideal candidate.
While this is no job application, many adults have very little tolerance for poor grammar, and it's interesting seeing the interaction. As for critiquing your post content, I can read them or skip them....it's up to me. Keep posting, friendo.
