Are there small language/script changes that have turned around how people respond to you? Lately, none of my outreaches have been fruitful at all, and I can't figure out what the change I need to make is. If you've been stuck in this way, please share how you crawled your way out.

Small tone shifts helped me. I now say things that lean more towards inviting conversation (“What are your thoughts on this?”) instead of just pushing a product led to better responses.

Another great idea!

I haven't made any small changes, per se. But I did use ChatGPT to write a script for me. I then made my own little tweaks and changes to make it my own.

Great idea!

Hey OP, have you tried any of these yet?

So, this is a little awkward, but I recently moved to SD for a fresh start, and honestly, I love this city. My problem is I have been more of a homebody since I moved here and I'm a little intimidated to go out and meet people because I don't feel like I fit in here. I am overweight and this city is full of active, and attractive people. I guess I am wondering what my experience would be if I got out more? I feel like people look at me when I'm in public because I stand out due to my size.

Hey FishBowl Friends, so I’m currently trying to break into tech sales/FinTech and I feel that due to my previous work history, I might not look like the ideal candidate on paper but I’m an extremely fast learner and very coachable. I’ve been a manger at a gym, got my degree in finance, worked as a client advisor at a top 3 auto dealer in the nation and now I’m a project manager at a solar company. I really want something that’s remote and steady, any recommendations on how to spruce myself up?

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations.

Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.
