Quote from: SdK on May 18, 2017, 02:30:52 PMI thought so. It was quite fortuitous. I think it bodes well that she approached me based upon being well dressed and well spoken. We shall see!it wasn't that you were well dressed and spoken, it also shows a certain level of maturity and a lot of hard work to be where you both were. whatever you've both been through will undoubtedly be harder than any work she may offer you and it shows that you potentially are up to the task. she knows these things.

I would think you would if you have two independent clauses

For which you're applying.
3 of the most successful ppl I know have worse grammar than I do, so you all can get mumped!
i just put in a comma or period wherever i would pause when speaking and call it a day. the only thing that can go wrong is dumbasses not reading it in my voice
