I just applied for a job at a very nice restaurant not knowing what position was being offered as there was just a help wanted sign posted. My intention is to apply for a dishwasher position though. I had a nice conversation with the owner and he mentioned that he is looking to hire in the new year and that he’ll give me a call in the new year I would like to know how if I don’t get a call back do you think it is alright to call the business back myself for an update.

Absolutely, definitely you should. A lot of people get busy and forget to follow up. It shows that you are really interested because you are putting in the extra effort to call back!

Thank you and happy new year

It's completely fine. There's a lot going on around the new year. If the owner forgets to get back to you, calling to check in isn't going to be held against you. If they really are looking to hire, they'll be happy you did.

Of course! Call back for an update and express continued interest in the position.

Absolutely, it’s okay to follow up! A polite call or email after a week or two into the new year shows interest and initiative without being pushy. Just keep it friendly and professional.

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%. He also said a recession would be better than the consequences of unchecked inflation. He announced he will bring rates to a “restrictive level” until “the job is done”. He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.

Salam. 23M here - all my life I’ve had my back on our faith - never really prayed but had imaan (I guess). After bouts of depression from girl problems (🙄), issues within immediate family, being disappointed expectations I had for myself, etc. I’ve been working on bettering my situation over the years. Faith is the only area where I think I need more guidance. Having trouble relating to friends or family about this. Anyone else been thru something similar? How have you connected back to Islam?

What if we taught students (and ourselves) to humbly subordinate to an objective truth about the world?

What if we spent more time studying and conforming to that truth than reflecting on our feelings about it?

I believe we'd see a lot less anxiety and depression. Questions like "Who am I," "Why am I here," and "Where am I going" wouldn't be so crippling and terrifying. We could look beyond ourselves and marvel at the beauty of a universe greater than ourselves.
