Every other line of the IM transcript would be grammatically incorrect in any English-speaking country I’m aware of.

“All hotel and booking has been made and trips has been plnanned”

“Is this how you want to be difficult”

“I will send you later”

Where is any of that considered correct English? If my manager sent any of those message I’d be worried about a stroke.

Pidgin dialects of English are no less correct than more wildly use dialects of English (grammar rules are shaped by the speaker of a dialect or language, as they use it, they are only set from on high when some people like to declare others as "unwanted" users of that language. But I digress)
