Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
I need networking advice. My sister is applying for a job (administrative assistant at a magazine). A friend of mine from high school is art director of a sister magazine and used to work on this magazine.
It seems obvious that I should get in touch with the high school friend - but what do I ask her for?

Information. Your friend may or may not know more about the job than is posted. If she does have her share it so your friend can tweak her resume, cover letter and interview to be a better fit.
Regardless, you friend knows the company culture from having worked there. What aspects of her skills and personality should your sister emphasize to be a good fit with the company culture. What are the things that your sister should avoid saying? Especially what stuff that that might be good things to say some places would be total gaffes in this company?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Okay, I didn't click 46 times to read the business jargon. What is "unwrap the kimono" supposed to mean?

Thanks, Typo, those are excellent suggestions. I started the email and my mind went blank.

Don't forget an open ended close. "Is there any other information you feel comfortable sharing that might help my sister demonstrate shes is a match?" Something on those lines.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
"unwrap the kimono" sounds both sexist and rascist, even if it isn't.
I'm pretty sure it is, sexist and racist I mean, given that it sounds like someone who just wants to fuck with something.

Okay, so my guess was wrong (again).
