Answer to Question 1

Writing skills can be your ticket to work-or your ticket out the door. Two thirds of salaried employees have some writing responsibility. However, about one third of them do not meet the writing requirements for their positions. Businesses desperately need employees who can write well. Effective writing skills can be a stepping stone to great job opportunities, or, if poorly developed, may derail a career. Writing is a marker of high-skill, high-wage, professional work; if you can't express yourself clearly, you limit your opportunities for many positions. Long gone are the days when business was mostly conducted face-to-face and when administrative assistants corrected spelling and grammar for their bosses. Although interpersonal skills still matter greatly, writing effectively is critical. Ever since the digital revolution swept the workplace, most workers write their own messages. Writing matters more than ever because the online media require more of it, not less.

False
