They can be a nice place to work. The one thing that I don’t like about coworking spaces is that they just have desks. When I work, I like to have a nice keyboard and full screen. I’d be a coworking customer more often if I could find one that’s equipped with additional tech like that.

Perfect example! (Just say “needs to know” instead of “need” since business is singular.)

This sounds oddly familiar. “A coup attempt” is correct, but it’s more common to say, “an attempted coup.” In the second part, remember to use “have” in the expression. You can say, “…but he has his popularity going for him.”

It definitely has something going for it. It is very fuel-efficient and has a lot of safety features.
