Lpt: DO NOT ASK A PERSON IF THEY HAVE FOUND A JOB YET
If they have and you're important enough to them, you'll know when they tell you. If they haven't told you, either it's none of your GODDAMN BUSINESS or they're still looking.
You asking just reminds them they don't have a job. And if they've been looking for awhile, it's even worse. Especially if you actually said "yet" or added in some other "it's been awhile" modifier.
The crystal generation! Now it looks bad to show interest in someone's well being because it makes them uncomfortable for a few seconds. Also, only fucking God knows why it makes them uncomfortable!
Is this the new slang boomers are using now that "snowflake" gets you laughed out of the room? Doesn't quite roll off the tongue the same. You should workshop it a little.
I could answer you but I won't because I don't want to make you uncomfortable.
Ah okay it's just trollbait, gotcha.
