Because you say it is, doesn't make it so. I'd dare to say that in
most work environments applicants had better spell properly if they
wish to be a serious contender for a job.
You've made a good living with an eighth-grade education. That's
great. My father did likewise, but never gave up trying to better
himself as far as spelling and grammar are concerned.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not putting you down. Just giving you food
for thought, that's all.
