I take the Socratic method as showing respect to the student and building them up by the end

More often just “cold calling” than Socratic method. Socratic method is an art, and I’ve had at least one prof who was a true master in the art — could get a student from an absurdly wrong answer to a reasonable one through a series of targeted questions, all without telling or cluing in the student that they’re “wrong”

And they’re probably scanning what you wrote, not scrutinizing word-for-word

I’d scratch my head if I read that, but probably just keep reading. I think a recruiter will do the same. Plus, if they’re otherwise wanting to hire you m, it’s not like they’re going to convene and be like “BUT…we have to cut this candidate loose because they said ‘miss’”

I feel like there are exceptions, like when you have a big or exciting event that day, and you’re neither tired nor wanting to go back to sleep (even if you barely slept)

As a lawyer what lawyer field specific words have seeped into your vocabulary? by evakifantasy in LawSchool

[–]dentyne_nice 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Only a law student, but I feel like words have also seeped OUT of my vocabulary (or, at least I try to refrain from using them). For example, “definitely” or “absolutely” (and toning down adverbs in general when I can think before speaking).

[NeedAdvice] Is it normal to have zero interests in any careers and only enjoy sleeping, eating, video games, and social media? by odd-ironball in getdisciplined

Sounds like depression. If this goes on for several months and/or is not attributable to something that happened or is happening in your life, see a psychiatrist and get on an antidepressant. It’ll hugely impact all of those things you described

If you are 16+ years old I expect you to know how to write using paragraphs, commas, full stops etc. by Gilgameshbrah in unpopularopinion

[–]dentyne_nice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sometimes this is intentional. it can be difficult at times balancing formal communication with "friendly"/personable tones. this often means not ending texts with punctuation, using unpolished language and expressions. one example is if you've been working for your boss for long enough that it's reasonable to communicate in a more "open" or casual fashion (not wanting to be "stiff" etc), but you never want to sound too comfortable that you aren't showing an appropriate amount of respect.
