“Where are you from?......but where are you really from?”

Common from some folks who want to probe and figure out my heritage without making it awkward. Sometimes I often say “You got me there...I’m from the hood part of NYC” for jokes. #Dale

Gate agent (not always, but quite often) or other passengers making sure I know that they are only pre-boarding. Uhhh, yeah...I know! That’s why I’m in line 🤦🏻‍♂️ always funny seeing people’s reaction to a Latino with status. I usually travel on Sunday’s so I’m not dressed up, but still

Hi
Applied for a position in Johnson and Johnson Canada. Reached the final round 3 weeks back. After not getting any updates I emailed the HR a couple of weeks back. They responded back telling me that they’ll have an update for me the next week. Again I emailed them on Thursday asking if they have anything for me before the long weekend ( Good Friday & Easter). No response whatsoever. Will emailing them again be inappropriate? I desperately need this job
