Re: Free grammar lessons!

I'm really not bothered by anyones poor grammer, unless it's a genocide. The only thing that gets to me is"noone".

Re: Free grammar lessons!

Everyone has something that bothers them for no real reason. I just have a lot, and I encompass grammar and spelling snafus as a large portion of my annoyances.

I also hate how police camp on the sides of roads and totally pk everyone. I mean, why not throw a gangster in jail instead? Last I checked, there's more to being a police officer than just camping out speeders.

I also hate it when people don't turn off lights or appliances when they leave the room. I hate uneconomical decisions in general.

The list goes on.

Ha! Ha! Hahahahahaha!!!

Tell that to your bosses. That is, of course, unless you want to flip burgers for the rest of your life.

Recall that you've already been banned from FFR for using craptacular grammar and spelling in CT. Good, or at least decent, grammar IS required to an extent here.

It's for your own good, anyway. What's it hurt to look intelligent?

EDIT: OOPS! You're banned again for this very reason.

Re: Free grammar lessons!

You know what I learned in my business writing course?

It is a hard-learned fact that people judge VERY quickly. A study proved that people can judge a person from just seeing their facial expression for only two seconds. The results of a two-second exposure to the person were incredibly similar to the results of a one-minute exposure to the same person by a different group of test subjects.

Likewise, you can be judged incredibly quickly in the real world based on grammar alone. What happens when you screw up on your resume or application? Do you honestly think the employer is going to consider you if you're among dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of applicants? No.

Resumes can be very, VERY quickly filtered by looking for grammar and spelling alone, and this is usually the case among major corporations.

As Guido said, enjoy your life flipping burgers.

You know what's funny? The fact that many people, when thanking the author for this grammar lesson, are making grammar mistakes in their posts. Very funny.

Hey, let's make fun of people who are attempting to change themselves for the better. That's a great idea.

Re: Free grammar lessons!

That's not how I'm looking at it though. I'm not making fun of them for trying to change themselves for the better, but I'm making fun of them for making grammar mistakes even after they JUST read a tutorial on grammar. The least they can do is try to put this lesson to good use right away.

Thank you everyone, but my grammar is fine. My head does hurt from reading though... maybe it's a sign of learning!

Maybe I'll copy/paste that unto another website. It's a shame it won't fit in a sig.
