The Illusion Of Literacy

Watching an intrusive ad on YouTube for Grammarly.

The pretty new hire cannot write intelligibly without her digital crutch.

This is the kind of person I'm not hiring, because it's correcting not just spelling, but basic syntax and grammar.  If she can't write, she probably cannot speak coherently either, thus failing the interview.
