From the ad:

 

“No WhatsApp available at the moment.

Don’t answer private numbers.

I don’t work with appointments scheduled days before,...”

 

I find that providers who’s ads open with lots of negative

statements....tend to be negative experiences. Just an

observation.

 

I hope to be proved wrong on this one....but I’m doubtful.

 

“Make yourself a favor.....”

“I don’t judge anybod”

 

Same thing with grammar errors and typos.

Although the last one is kinda funny.

And it's so easy to change those statements into positives with a positive outlook!

 

"Please contact me via XXX"

"If you call, please ensure your caller ID shows up on my phone so I know who you are."

"I prefer to schedule within 24 hours of meeting."

 

You can definitely tell the guys who have been at this a while.

Good points except it’s whose not who’s, speaking of grammar and typos.

A way of thinking about (and hopefully remembering this) is that with pronouns an apostrophe is always a contraction, and the possessive pronoun doesn't have one. So, its, his, hers, yours, theirs, whose (possessive) and it's, he's, she's, you're, they're, who's (contraction with the verb 'to be'). Obviously it's easier when the root word changes between the two (eg she's uses nominative case and hers derives from the accusative), or the verb is plural.

You’re both nerds.....which I love.

 

Stupid thing is I actually thought about who’s/whose

for a hot second, knowing the #1 fuck up in a post

criticizing grammar is grammar, and I was too lazy

to double check it. Thank you for the grammar lesson.

That was a waste of a perfectly good explanation. Well, on me at least... ? I’m sure I will keep screwing it up!! ?

 

Will give you an ‘A’ for effort! ??

Lol, I get that! Shorter version: if you can't replace the word with it is, who is etc then no apostrophe.
