A friend of an aunt interviewed my kid for a job. She then said she'd pass it on to her boss for a potential hire and also her (the friend's) husband for resume advice.
Since then, radio silence
In our house there is disagreement as to next step.
Opinion #1: Just wait. This is a family friend situation--they aren't going to just forget about you. You'll hear back. (Sub-opinion: If you can think of a reason to contact them about something else to remind them you exist, do that.)
Opinion #2: The friend was previously unknown to us and had no particular connection other than the aunt. The boss and husband even less so. If something came up or the email scrolled down their inboxes a ways, it is effectively gone. Send a polite "have you heard anything?" followup ping to the friend.

I’m convinced that there is something wrong with a large swath of the general public’s ability to communicate at concerts in a way that doesn’t make me want to accidentally punch them in the throat.
THE RIGHT WAY:
Lean over so your mouth is near their ear. Talk at a normal volume. Alternate accordingly.THE WAY THAT MAKES ME WANT TO THROAT PUNCH YOU:
Stand 3 feet apart and shout over the music, ensuring that everyone hears your inane banter and can’t enjoy the show they’re actually there to see.… this message brought to you by far too many experiences.

When someone says, “Quiet, piggy,” the appropriate response is, “Shut up, child rapist.” #ettiquette - Andy Borowitz

For the love of all that is holy, do not reply all to mass emails, especially after the original sender says to stop. There are rare cases reply all is okay. Rare. #email #ettiquette #courtesy #communication

@dcbuchan I try to talk to the image in the post and expand and compliment with the alt description. I usually put more effort into the alt and want reading it to be its own reward. Plus you get way more characters to use. #AltText #ettiquette

How come we don’t say ‘bless you’ when people fart? Same thing like a sneeze right?
I mean irl, I don’t even say bless you - because as an atheist I gotta put my foot down somewhere 😂
But we should start saying bless you when someone farts.

My fav* "helpful" replies...
Oh you have a question about a minor adjustment or quirk of an application you're using? Table-flip everything you're doing and switch to this totally different competing product/service. 😑
What have these people suffered such that they think the solution to a small problem is to throw all your familiarity & experience into the garbage and restart from scratch? Do they place no value on one's time? Bizarre.
* Stop it.

Lessons from today's #AppleEvent:
1. #Apple talks aloud in #trains and #libraries. (Repent and sin no more.)
2. Workstations at Apple look poorly designed for #work.
3. The wood-cased gizmos in Apple’s chip suite merit their own event.
4. Webcams on #iPads Air and Pro are now where God intended.

The Sixties trope of "Letting it all hang out", seems to have extended even further in American culture.
"Better out than in" was never meant to cover the behaviour of #VonShitsInPants.

#RandomThoughts
I'm wondering about hashtag etiquette.I usually put hashtags at the end of posts.
Sometimes, like right now, I have one main one at the beginning, sort of like a headline.
Occasionally, I'll include them online in the body of the post if it works naturally and saves space.
I don't use the same one more than once per post.
In a list at the end, I usually put one per line. Should they be alphabetized? In order of importance?
How do you do it?
