Learn how to write correctly!!

One of my biggest pet peeves is educated people who use improper grammar and sentence structure. I've seen job descriptions on career builder with tons of mistakes. All I can think is, "why would I want to work for people who can't even write a paragraph correctly? Who knows what else they would screw up".
I'm not talking about a missing comma here and there. That's forgivable. I'm talking about things like your/you're. It's not that hard people! 2nd graders know the correct word to use.

Anyway, an email I got yesterday was particularly bad. Apparently a supervisor that works for Sylvan Online decided to quit her job. She didn't just settle on sending a letter to her supervisor telling him she was quitting. She sent an email out to every single person in the company! It wasn't an accident, she actually meant to do it. But the entire email was full of run-on sentences, improper grammar, and horrible sentence structure. Here's the opening 2 sentences of her email...

I would just like to say that I feel the Educate Online program is a very good idea and has helped many kids with bettering there education. With that said I feel that as a company Educate Online is not doing what they can to give these families and these children the best tutoring available.

I feel like those sentences should be on the SATs, in the section where you need to correct all the mistakes. Seriously, this woman was a tutor!!
In conclusion, I will leave you with a another quote from her email...

I think this program could be great but some changes and I mean changes need to be made.

Ha!
