What? :)
I hope the OP writes a book with zero changes to his writing style.
OP, please write that book / collection of stories. Loved reading this, it makes me appreciate the culture and quality of work we have in our company.

The author is probably a non native English speaker

It actually reads to me like the author is definitely a native English speaker.

Agreed.
The patterns sound like native English speech.
I suspect dyslexia.

I couldn't make it past the first block of text. I wonder if people who write like that realize how it makes them look? I'd never hire them.

Personally I found this piece pretty fun to read.
The guy is ventilating some stress through prose, not applying to work with you.

I enjoyed it too. It reminds me of The Cuckoo's Egg by Cliff Stoll. Both were written in very similar style.

I don't doubt that there's an interesting story in there. I tried to hang in long enough to find out. I can only take so much, though.

i en joyed it but s true that lack of pucntuation and grammatical errors made it harder to read then necessary. /s
I can tolerate some bad grammar, but somehow the combination of incorrect articles, words auto-spellchecked to something completely different, run-on sentences, and lack of punctuation, made it a real chore to read through without getting lost...
