Hopefully someone remembers the quote better, but the Miata talk just flashed me back to that tool. God he is a tool, with the haircut to match
Yeah, it was something along those lines. He also offered to write a recommendation for anyone who wanted to go somewhere else but never actually would. YUUUGGEE tool.

In his defense, he did spell it right. He just didn't use the right word. How much do you make?

Miss that guy! His attitude toward the pilot group, how he was so above us, and his general inappropriate behavior/comments at the negotiating table!!

Where is he now? Canada? India??? Avenger???

Yeah, I was wondering what word to use instead. In my defense, English is my third language.
(I definitely make enough!)(not negotiating in public, just in reference to my writing capabilities..)

Harvard Divinity School or Hawaii Dental Service?
Totally okay with being called a dork. It is a public forum. Most of us want to be compared to doctors and lawyers, not truck drivers and burger flippers. Knowing how to write and spell is one of the things that separates those groups.
I mean, seriously: "would of" and "per say"????
It is the same as showing up for work in our uniform and shaving.

I get what you're saying yet it seems there has been a slight shift when it comes to gauging a persons intelligence based on language. With auto correct these younguns don't have to know how to write. To bad it can't observe context very well. If there's not an app for something, the new generation is lacking. I've run into many very smart people that just can't seem to write for sh!t!! Its shocking to me how many boys today have no clue on how to swing a flippin hammer! Or change there own tire for that matter......

Autocorrect still doesn’t change “to” to “too.” 😉
