We all have little knowledge gaps in our minds. Whether it’s something complicated like how to drive a stick shift or something simple like how to tie your shoes, these things can be embarrassing to ask about if you didn’t learn them at the right age.

You know what I mean? These people do:

#15. How can you stay?

“What its like to be in a serious relationship with someone who you don’t see a future with. Guys either didn’t make it past a casual relationship with me, or they (he) were extremely serious and we’d plan our life together.

How can you stay with someone that you don’t want to spend the rest of your life with?”

#14. Hot or cold?

“Do I actually have to do separate loads of laundry for hot and cold wash, or can I just keep washing everything on cold?

Edit: wow this blew up. Thank you everyone for your replies! I now know more about laundry than I ever thought I would!”

#13. Hot farts.

“Why do ‘hot’ farts stink so much more than the cool ones? Is the temperature of the fart higher, making it feel hot? Or is it something having to do with the blood vessels in your ass? And why would hot ones stink so badly?”

#12. Sexting

“How to dirty text. I can’t tell where the appropriate line is between ‘hot naughty things’ and ‘thats disgusting’.”

#11. The math gods.

“Physics. I passed physics 101 by the skin of my teeth. Literally by 2 points.

I still don’t understand how I managed to pass that class. I assume the math gods finally took pity on me.”

#10. You’re not alone, my friend.

“After all these years still cant understand how Bitcoin works for the life of me.”

#9. George Costanza?

“Numerous aspects of my job.”

#8. The awkward feeling.

“So, eh, how do i make friends if i’m not in school anymore? Do i just barge into an existing group (say .. in a local whatever-sports-club) and ignore the awkward feeling of being an intruder long enough that i somehow belong too?”

#7. For three years.

“I have a double light switch on the kitchen wall by my garage and dining room entrances. I still flip both of them to figure out which controls what lights. I’ve lived there for 3 years.”

#6. Bunny ears ftw.

“The “loop, swoop and pull” method of tying shoes. Been using bunny years since I can remember and even tried learning the other way once. At this point I don’t even care.”

#5. Every Monday.

“Every Monday morning for the last 6 months a guy I work with walks up to me and says, “Monday”, with the tone you would use to say, “Morning”, as a greeting. I think it’s a movie quote, because he always laughs like it’s a joke. I’ve smiled and laughed along this entire time and now it’s too late to ask him what he’s referencing. I do my best to hide from him every Monday now.

I’d love any insight.”

#4. Which term would be acceptable?

“I’m interning with a judge, let’s call him Bob Roberts. I got the position through his son, and have been doing this for two months. The catch: in the last two months I have never called him by his name. I don’t understand which term would be acceptable. Bob, because he’s my friend’s dad? Mr. Roberts, because he’s an adult and I’m a teenager? Judge Roberts, because he’s a judge?

I compromised with myself by never saying his name, which is also kinda awkward. And because I was afraid to clarify at the start, I’ve been stuck in this quagmire for the whole summer. Help.”

#3. On paper.

“I just got an A in calculus 3 and I don’t know how to long divide on paper.”

#2. Swimming.

“How to swim…”

#1. Dude, it’s too late.

“World of Warcraft. I missed the popular days, and everybody just tell me “Dude, it’s too late..”

If you’ve ever been in an interview then you have heard that dreaded final question: “Is there anything you’d like to ask us?”

There’s no right answer to this question! You either make up a random question just to ask something or you say nothing at all…which somehow seems worse.

If you’re facing an interview, take heed – here are 15 employers willing to share the best response they ever heard.

#15. There were a couple.

“He asked “Were there any questions that I didn’t answer fully or you wanted me to elaborate upon further?”

As a matter of fact, there were a couple I wanted to revisit.”

#14. A good match.

“I’m not an employer, but I strongly feel that this is the one question in an interview where you shouldn’t just try to tell the interviewer what you think they want to hear. You need to interview the company as much as they need to interview you to find out if it’s a good match. Good employers will be perfectly fine with this because they want happy and productive employees who WANT to work there. So if being forced to work lots of overtime is a complete non-starter for you, ask them about their work/life balance policies. If you’re going for a desk job and you hate working in a cubicle, ask what their work environment looks like.”

#13. Some insight.

“I like asking the interviewers why they like working at the company. Gives them a chance to talk about themselves and also gives me some insight into what it’s like to work at that company.”

#12. Full disclosure.

“I have my septum pierced and a full sleeve tattoo. Both are always flipped up/covered during interviews. I always make sure to tell them that I have both and ask what their policies are on it while making it clear both can be hidden no problem. I always get a thank you for disclosing the information before starting at the job so they aren’t surprised or caught off guard. They always seem to appreciate that I go out of my way to hide it for professional reasons but still share that information with them.”

#11. Progression and opportunities.

“Normally ask who their longest serving employee is, gives you an indication on their turnover and if people enjoy staying with the company.

Also ask the interviewer what role they started off as in the company, it tells you if there is progression and opportunities.”

#10. Completely different answers.

“Young grad straight out of uni, getting into her first “proper” job

“What do you like most about working here”

It was also cool how my colleague and I had completely different answers.

(We hired her)”

#9. Show genuine interest.

“Anything about the company or position. You need to show genuine interest and that you prepared for the interview. Writing down a few things you’re unsure they’ll go over ahead of time is always a good move.”

#8. An average work day.

“Could you describe an average work day for this position?”

I do lots of interviewing and I want people to ask us about what we do. It might not be what they expect and I want them to be as informed as possible.”

#7. The benefits.

“After him reading my CV of a 14 years chef as a career and me answering all his questions, I then asked him what this business could do for me? He was taken back a little as no one had ever asked that. He then proceeded to tell me about all the benefits that come with the job, staff meals, Staff drinks, laundry washed etc. I got the job.”

#6. A long term deal.

“I said, I expect this to be a long term deal. How long have you all been here? And can I expect to move up within the company in a timely basis? There were about 4 people in the room and their mouths dropped. They’ve never had anyone ask questions like that before. I did get the job, and I’m still here.”

#5. Both times.

“What do you think it would take for a person to do really well at this job?”

​

Both times I’ve used this question, I’ve been hired.”

#4. May I ask…

“May i ask how this position became available?”

#3. References.

“As a carpenter, I ask what their status is with their suppliers and subcontractors. I’ve even go as far as asking them for references. The last time I changed jobs, I wanted it to be my last job and the economy was really strong in my area. So there were a lot of people looking for lead carpenters and supervisors. I had multiple offers and in order to decide, called their sub contractors (roofers, drywallers, painters) and asked how they liked working with them. I asked them and their material suppliers if they paid their bills on time and if they worked with them consistently.

I recommend anyone who is serious about a long term job to do the same. Especially if you aren’t desperate for any job and are interviewing with multiple companies. And sometimes you can turn it around and make them feel like they are hoping you’ll work for them instead of the other way around.”

#2. Turnover.

“High turnover is rarely an employee problem, and almost always a management problem. I ask about turnover in every single interview. If that nixes me from the hiring process, I’m more than ok with that.”

#1. A good fit.

“I guess for this I expect something that demonstrates you’re actually engaged and that you couldn’t have found out in 5 minutes on the Internet before coming in.

My interviews tend to be very freeform. There are some stock questions I have to ask, but I dislike them as much as the interviewee dislikes answering them precisely because there’s an expectation, or an expectation of an expectation, that one or both parties are trying to outmaneuver the other.

I want to know if we’ll be a good fit for each other. If you can’t help us, or we can’t provide an environment that you’ll want to stick around in, I want to know that so we’re not wasting both of our time. So I really prefer to go off script, and I ask a lot of questions where there isn’t a correct answer.”

Anyone who has ever adopted a pet knows how rewarding the experience can be, but also how much work it can be to get to know your new pet – their personality, their quirks, the issues they need to work through and the ways they enjoy affection. It can be hard to know when you’re wandering around what exactly you’re getting into, but anyone who walks by Bruno is going to have a pretty good idea.

Bruno was surrendered when he couldn’t get along with his family’s children, so that’s also something helpful to know. Here he is, perusing adoption applications and weeding out the people who have children he’s too heavy to quickly escape from.

He’s extra AF.

With his extra toes, his rocking bod, and the way he catches the camera, it’s no wonder that his (fabulous) Facebook post has garnered quite a bit of attention. It lists his quirky traits, like standing on his hind legs and wanting to be petted while he eats, and his positive qualities abound:

As you can see by the updates on the Facebook post above, Bruno has found his forever family. And since there was no way this cat was going to settle into home life without a few extras, the shelter made sure his new momma was as much as he is:

She definitely deserves him.
