Just as the title asks I’ve noticed a very sharp increase in people just straight up not comprehending what they’re reading.
They’ll read it and despite all the information being there, if it’s even slightly out of line from the most straightforward sentence structure, they act like it’s complete gibberish or indecipherable.
Has anyone else noticed this? Because honestly it’s making me lose my fucking mind.
I used to work on an email helpdesk, and it was a real issue for me. So many people used to write “can” when they meant “can’t”. Working it out from context was iffy, because people also used to genuinely complain that the service made it possible for them to do things they weren’t interested in.
