Actually there are certain college’s an unwoke employer won’t even consider hiring someone from.

That last thing they want is a new self absorbed, demanding, entitled little twit to contend with.

Ooooops, ended 2 sentences consecutively with a preposition.....Obviously I wasn’t an English major.

"Ooooops, ended 2 sentences consecutively with a preposition.....Obviously I wasn’t an English major."
Our English language has Germanic roots where ending sentences with preposition is common because the preposition is part of the verb.
