Nothing is important. Grammar, spelling, outlining, all that stuff--not important! Just check out the holy

You need this for career-planning purposes? Haven't you heard? Planning is not important either.

studies have concluded that there is no correlation at all between
effective technical communications and grammar".

I seek responses for career planning purposes.
