Hi, could you correct this writing for me?
People often say “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” Describe a time when you misjudged someone based on his or her appearance or when someone misjudge you.
Well, this lesson “Don’t judge a book by its cover” isn’t an experience that I have passed directly, but it passed on my job two years ago, and all my co-workers and me learned about it and stll today everybody talks about that story.
I work in a housing development company, so here we plan, built and promote to sell new houses. One day, an elderly woman cames to the office asking for information, she looked simple, she was wearing dirty clothes, old slippers, pinny, she seemed quite sunny and sweated. Hi, I want a house! – she said. Valuably, the seller attended her very well, without discrimitation, but inside nobody though in the next episode just for her look. After the explanation of the project, the women said that she had a commercial module in the Oriental Market and she wanted two big houses for her daughters. Incredibly she carried U$ 10,000.00 in her pocket while she had arrived by public bus, then she went to the bank to complete the price and make the transference because she bougth the two biggest houses.
But this is not all, until today the woman has been the most educated, polite and friendly customer that we ever had, even more than bussinessman and managers that we have received. For us, she is the best example that “The cover is nothing”.

Well, this lesson “Don’t judge a book by its cover” isn’t something that I have experienced directly, but it happened in my job two years ago. My co-workers and I heard about the story and to this day everybody still talks about it.
I work in a housing development company, so here we plan, build and promote to sell new houses. One day, an elderly woman came to the office asking for information. She looked plain, she was wearing dirty clothes, old slippers, and an apron, and she seemed quite tanned and sweaty. "Hi, I want a house!" she said. The seller attended to her very well, without discrimination, but because of her appearance, they didn't anticipate what happened next. After the explanation of the project, the women said that she had a commercial module in the Oriental Market and she wanted two big houses for her daughters. To everyone's surprise, she had US $10,000.00 in her pocket. She got on a bus, then went to the bank to complete the price (?) and make the transfer because she had bought the two biggest houses.

(This last sentence is a bit confusing; it is unclear what is happening. She wanted two houses, then you said that she had already bought them. What transfer was she making?)
To this day, this woman has been the most educated, polite and friendly customer that we have ever had, even more than businessmen and managers that we have received. For us, she is the best example that "you can't judge a book by its cover".
