It’s not just Getbig a phenomena. I receive several business e-mails and business plans per day with horrible grammar, punctuation, spelling, incorrect homophones (your/you’re; hear/here; won/one, ware/wear/where etc) and run-on sentences. Anyone can spell check but it takes at least an SOME grammatical acuity to get the aforementioned correct. I’m not saying I don’ t make some mistakes but it makes me scratch my head that someone looking for $250 Million in funding wouldn't hire someone adept to edit their documents.
I fear, my Australian friend, that we are already there, though it saddens me. I have been in academia too long to not care about it but I must say get big gives new meaning to the proverbial meat head with a barbell if you know what I mean.
you start a thread whining about how people who post dont use proper punctuation and then type out this post?moron.
i fink dat wot ur sayin iz Bulshitt, mos peeple kan spel wel
Do cite specific errors please if you are going to be so critical.
How can I loose weight fast?
it won't kill those idiots to proofread their writings before posting it. imagine an employer reading your resume with one too many grammatical error. I wouldn't hire that idiot. It is a bigger deal than some of you think.
foo, grammtical errors dont men a ting, look at daddy waddy preach what you practice ?.
in the corporate world, your writing says a lot about you. Imagine if you're applying for law school, and you send your essay with errors an elementary student wouldn't make...lol. you'd be denied in a heartbeat.
