Granted, most are simply punctuation errors, but they would still be caught by spell check. Grammar and the use of pronouns is another issue.
I understand that the 'texting generation' doesn't care about punctuation, spelling, and complete sentences but if you are going to prosper where (by your own calculation) most of your peers and virtually all your supervisors (i.e. those that can influence your career) are older than you, just realize that they do care. To those who learned how to spell and punctuate, those that either can't or choose not to write properly look ignorant or sloppy or both. You don't want to look like that.
Or, maybe you do, I don't know.
Hmm... i can tlk lik this if u wnt. my spllchckr dsnt crct grmr errrs.
If I leave off an apostrophe or comma, it doesnt mean I dont know how to speak appropriately. I use proper diction and mostly correct grammar. Always have, always will type like that. Im not posting a resume here, Im asking questions. dont and don't. You get my point regardless. Its an online discussion, not a formal critique.
The age of my supervisors was not the question. My older, "more mature" classmates are the one coming to me for advice and help in class. Im willing to learn, but its going to be a while before their wisdom comes into any kind of meaning (if they even pass). When that day comes, Im more then willing to sit and listen!
and for what it's worth, if you are going to critique my grammar, Id appreciate it if you spoke with 100% accuracy as well. Petty? Maybe, but its pretty much the same thing.
[Incorrect sentence structure with implied noun]Granted, most are simply punctuation errors[semi colon, not comma when connecting more then one independent clause], but they would still be caught by spell check. [Incorrect sentence structure, implied noun again]Grammar and the use of pronouns is another issue.
I understand that the [improper usage of apostrophes. Use quotations]'texting generation' doesn't care about punctuation, spelling, and complete sentences[you forgot your semi colon] but if you are going to prosper where (by your own calculation)[you forgot your comma] most of your peers and virtually all your supervisors [you forgot your comma] (i.e. those that can influence your career)[another comma] are older than you, just realize that they do care. To those who learned how to spell and punctuate, those that either can't or choose not to write properly look ignorant [separate points with commas] or sloppy or both. You don't want to look like that.
