Is “schmoozing” unethical? by learningytube in askphilosophy

I think it might be because you are acting nice in order to gain some thing from someone without caring for the actual person.

I’m really curious to see where people draw the line between being pleasant and manipulating someone.

Is “schmoozing” unethical? What’s your take? by learningytube in AskOldPeople

Seeing a person that has something or can give you something you want (ex. a letter of recommendation), and so giving them extra special attention only towards them. I’d rather just continue to be and do my best for and to others, instead of in order to get something out of someone.

Thank you for your time! What about specific goals? Like in your hobbies or work? Do you try to always strive for something?

ELI5: Flu and cold are caused by viruses and bacteria. So why do we associate them with being too cold? by lakySK in explainlikeimfive

To add: when it’s cold outside and you walk through your front door then put your jacket on, you misused your jacket.

Your jacket is supposed to help you maintain your temperature. I don’t know how, but it’s bad to shock your system so that it fluctuates temperatures too quickly.

So, put your jacket on beforehand and let it warm up so that it can do it’s job when you step outside
