How would you start a conversation with a stranger?
``` I want $something
EOM ```
for some folks, filler sentences are a sign of politeness.
Dewan,
Hi, this is bluedino, we've spoken a few times on Hacker News. I saw that your company has openings for QBasic programmers on their website, do you know anything about this position? I'm interested in applying and would love a referral or introduction to the hiring manager/team leader if that's possible.
Appreciate your time, BD
