One of my co-workers is ostensibly in charge of the marketing materials for a particular product line. He can't spell. His grammar is dreadful. His knowledge of the product line is not very good, even after nearly a year, and others have ended up rescuing, rewording, and essentially doing his job.
I'm underwhelmed... and in a recent meeting, finally lost it and, opined, while dissecting his latest (just before it went to the printers!!!), that if he couldn't at least manage to form complete sentences, his work was worthless. (I promptly apologized - I try to avoid nuking people in public).
I'm with y'all! (mind you, I probably live in a glass house of grammar, roofed with tiles of misspelling, but ... arrrgh!)
