Your post provides no helpful feedback for those of us phishing for referrals. Downvote I've tried "What what, you're hot" "Is it hot in here or it just you?" "hot or not, I'm into you" Zero. Referrals. To. Date What's worse is most of you respond with unhelpful feedback like "I'm blocking you" "I'm not into dudes" *silence What do you want from me!?

I know what you mean Ryan Murphy. I'm so tired of attractive women constantly bombarding me with messages. I just want to talk about TDD and why I hate SAFe. Leave me alone please!

I get at least one of those weekly. Best way to network: 1. First give, then ask. Comment, like, repost, suggest, connect and then - ask politely for referral. 2. Manage your expecations. Don't expect everyone to reply, cold messages rarely have a good respond rate.

She deserves the appraisal because she does every work at every company.

I've found that a rapid-fire slew of nonsensical messages in all caps sends scam accounts like this running straight to scam therapy.
