Issues Summary
"the rest of they day"
→ Suggestion: the rest of the day
The word 'they' is incorrect in this context; it should be 'the' to refer to the day.
"talking about other people's interest"
→ Suggestion: talking about other people's interests
The word 'interest' should be plural ('interests') to match the context of discussing multiple people's interests.
