I've just had the misfortune to review 4 reports written by 4 people - age range of 25-45yrs old, senior management roles.
Quite honestly it scares me how poorly people write these days. Simple words used incorrectly - [b]a[/b]ffect vs [b]e[/b]ffect, bought vs b[b]r[/b]ought and so on. Sentence construction that borders on a paragraph. Don't get me started on comma's''''''' 😉
Honestly, it's scary and embarassing. These people are on good salaries and in jobs that require a good level of formal training. From that you would expect that they can actually rite proper (sic). 2 of them had already been reviwed as well 🙄
Having marked them all up, and while i let a few things go (one of them looked like I had disassembled it with markup turned on) they individually did not comprehend some of the changes. These people all have degrees and between 5-20 years experience. Amazing.
WTF do people get taught these days ?.
No points for pointing out my speeling or grammaticul eerrors either as this is a RanT!$%#^#$.
