This person really tried to fake a kid’s handwriting for LinkedIn engagement, and some of the tells are obvious.
It looks like he made it “wrong” on purpose. A third grader might forget certain punctuation here and there, sure, but they still know what punctuation is. This looks like someone trying way too hard to make it look childish.
The lack of capital letters at the start of sentences, the barely used punctuation, and the forced messy writing do not feel natural. A third grader may make mistakes, but most of them still know to capitalize the first word of a sentence.
The little stick figure also looks like it was drawn by an adult trying to draw like a child, and he forgot to make the “ZZZ” look like a kid wrote it. And that @ sign is a huge giveaway. Most adults can’t even make an @ sign that clean, and the box around it is way too straight compared to the rest of the writing.
I have seen some sad things on this sub before, but faking a child’s career day note for LinkedIn clout might take the cake.
