Here is a repost of an item on LinkedIn about some of the common grammar mistakes we see all too often. While the author of the post highlighted a handful of common errors, it is interesting to see that the hundreds of ‘comments’ keep adding more examples to the list. I think it is interesting that this post garnered nearly 500 comments – many delivered with true venom. Clearly poor communication is a sore point for many people. Equally interesting is the number of people who said they completely dismiss individuals and businesses that send emails and documents containing poor spelling and grammar.  Does poor spelling and incorrect grammar lower your opinion of the person who sent you the information? Do you feel confident dealing with an organisation that sends out information that contains spelling mistakes, words used incorrectly and bad grammar?
