Maybe it is.

Dang

Just damn

Damn

They don't exactly hire rocket scientists to run those fast food joints (excluding the kids with their first jobs of course). I went into a burger joint in Camden one time that had a sign on the door that they were "out of meet".

Saw a waitress struggle to spell the name Dorothy the other day. The Lady got her license out and laid it on the table after a couple tries. I blessed her heart after witnessing this encounter.

You apparently run just as much risk of being offensive or "rude" if you answer someone's questions in a clear, concise manner while using proper spelling and punctuation when selling something on FB Marketplace, too.

Yes, I was informed that I sounded rude. I even took a screenshot and sent it to a friend who is a store manager here and she said that she runs into that all the time. Some parts of society have evidently been so dumbed down that they think others are rude and/or offensive if they DO spell and punctuate correctly.

I swear if I was hiring folks, I would want a handwritten paragraph of why the person thought they would be a good fit for the position simply so I could see penmanship and ability to spell and punctuate. A lot of things can be taught, but it grinds my gears when I can tell that it isn't just a matter of tech keystrokes causing the issue.
