To the OP, you'll do yourself a favor in the long run if you take the time to write they way they teach you in school using proper capitalization, punctuation, and sentence structure. The adults of the world, who for many years to come will control your earning opportunities, are generally dismissive of youth who can not express themselves clearly in speech or in writing. If you also happen to use the word "like" more frequently than necessary, you might want to consider changing that, too if you want the respect of the generations in front of you.

If you don't care what we old guys think, then go ahead and interview for your next job with some of your friends. I'm sure many are hiring.
Sorry for the hijack but great responses to a problem that drives me crazy. I'm 63 and have a 25 yr old son who's thumbs are flat from texting.
