Default WTF?! Please learn punctuation. Random story / email from work

Okay, so I work at a startup hedgefund deal called Warwick Capital doing all the IT / coding / software dev side of things. On Friday some random young [you people cant handle any form of racial description so assume he had no race] kid walks in uninvited from a college no where near our office and asks for us to show him our code so he can use it for his final year project and then we can give him a job! WTF? I never knew thats how it works.

Somehow we got rid of him and said email us, then yesterday got this (its long but ridiculous how he expects something after sending this turd). Really in need of some punctuation / paragraphs ffs:

Hi its Marlon Carr i came to see you in your office on Friday 3rd of
November to see if you could help with my finale year Project. I attend
Coventry Universty and study Computing what i wanted was to know if i could
get some help in choosing a programm that isn't to complecated in Java that
had some thing to do with the finacial industry a program that performs some

sort of Mathmatical calculation that can be related to a real life
experiecne what takes place in finacial Systems what one of the guys from
the Universty i attend said to me was to do a programm that stores Check
Book deatils, but i was not to sure as i have never seen any thing like this

and it was quiet hard for me trying to picture it also i have never ever
seen i finale peace of work in Java completed apart form the pop ups that we

get on internet and Applications/Software that we come across in our every
day lives that is one of the main reasons that i approached you was to see
if you could show me some of your exsiting Software packages or software tht

you have developed or something that you are working on at the moment or any

work which you have done in Java period and the code you said that you would

email me back or ill give you my mobile and you can ring me and im to come
back up so that we can sit down a discuss matters now my Project Breif has
to in for the 13th of December thats the dead line so i would like to come
and see you as soon as possable so i know weather or not i will be able to
do my project in Java or not which is what im hoping so that i can get my
self an Entry Level Java programming job when i leave Universty. You were
quiet helpfull when i approached you on the friday and i belive that it will

be in your every interest to help me get my end of year Project started i
will be awaiting an email or some sort of contact from as of when and time

Maybe English is a second language for him-- if so, I think you could probably cut him a little slack

Marlon sounds like a ringer for the night manager position at the local McDonalds. I think he is just applying for the wrong job.
