I'm looking for childcare a little closer to home, as awesome as our current person is, the morning commute is killing me.

I've realize realized* that I'm biased toward people who can spell, use proper capitalization and use punctuation.

*[Edit: I've now cleaned the Dr Pepper (which does not have a period in the name for any that care) from the letters d, f, g, t, h, and r. The numbers 4, 5 and 6 are provinf more difficult, and it is for that reason that we have a number pad on keyboards.]

How do you feel about people whom you know can do all of those but choose to eschew them for most internet communication?

There's context. I had to admit it, but there is a certain utility in txt shorthand for certain reasons. Also, my IM exchanges with my best friend are riddled with typos as we type at 100wpm and carry on three simultaneous conversations on different topics to maximize information exchange.

The context here is that they have posted a service, and are attempting to attract clients. More specifically, this will be someone who is applying for the job of caring for my child and, hopefully, expanding his horizons and education. Taking 10 seconds to look over your ad could be invaluable.

I also still e-mailed them, and have been unimpressed so far. It's like pulling teeth to learn information like their rates, location in the city and whether they care for infants under the age of 18 months.

Yeah, I noticed that error, too. Apparently they don't need proper grammar. ;)

;p I meant "whose poor typing cannot be excused by a sticky keyboard caused by their child"

It's more stuff like "OK I HOPE WE CAN MEET SOON AND YOUR WLECOME"
