Q: " There's no better way to greet anyone than with a nice "hello" and a friendly smile. The model you're approaching will appreciate the simplicity, especially in comparison to the endless amounts of flirting and schmoozing they regularly deal with. The model likely has several followers they've spoken to before and may not remember you specifically. Reintroduce yourself the next few times you speak to them. Ask them how they've been doing before launching into what you want to say. You could say, for instance, "Hey, @jrsmith, this is @razzmatazz. I DMed you a few weeks ago asking about your food posts. How are you? I wanted to ask" The model you're approaching already knows they're attractive. That's why they're a model! Don't start off your conversation talking about how wonderful they look, or they may brush you off. Instead, sprinkle in compliments throughout the conversation about other things, such as their knowledge about a particular subject or how funny they are. Some better compliments to give are, "I can tell you're really passionate about marketing. I'm really fascinated by your thoughts," or "You seem like such a bright and engaging person!" This is the best way to get to know someone and kindle a potential relationship. Ask the model about their hobbies and what they're passionate about outside of the job. Ask if they went to school and what they studied. If you find the two of you share a common interest, build a conversation from that to forge a connection. Consider asking questions like, "So, what are your favorite hobbies?" or "Do you enjoy reading?" Keep in mind that talking to the model about their work isn't completely off-limits. Just approach it from a different angle. Ask them what led them to become a model. Talk about what they enjoy about their career. Ask if there are any other career paths they'd like to pursue in the future. A couple of great questions to ask are, "Have you had to travel very often for work? What are the most interesting places you've been to?" and "How did you get into modeling?" If you feel there's chemistry between the two of you, there's nothing wrong with asking the model for their phone number so you can keep talking. Say something like, "I'd love to continue this conversation with you sometime. Could I get your phone number?" Don't throw a tantrum or insult the model if they turn you down. Instead, thank them for the conversation, say "goodbye," and leave.
A: Greet the model with a simple "hello. Reintroduce yourself if you're talking to the model online. Compliment them on another trait besides their appearance. Ask the model about their personal interests. Talk to them about their work. Ask the model for their phone number before ending the conversation.

Q: Most oil rig crews, both onshore and offshore, work grueling 12-hour shifts. Rotations vary, but most companies keep crews on site for two weeks and then give workers two weeks off.

Most oilfields in the United States are in the unforgiving climate of the Southwest, where summertime temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees F (37.7 C). Drilling in the petroleum-rich fields of Canada reaches full capacity during the bitterly cold winter months, when the frozen ground is better able to withstand heavy equipment and exploration procedures. Offshore rigs. Workers on offshore oil rigs are at the mercy of the elements, too. North Sea platforms are battered year-round by strong winds and unyielding waves. Rigs dotting the U.S. coastline in the Gulf of Mexico are on alert during the hurricane season (June 1 to November 30). The contents of an oil well are under extreme pressure, but that's only part of the danger rig workers face daily. Cranes are constantly moving massive sections of pipe across the platform. Highly combustible gases are used in everyday operations that include welding and pipe-cutting. All of these aspects of oil rigs constitute a fairly constant level of danger that requires workers to be on guard and prepared to handle emergency situations.
A: Decide if you are capable of working long shifts. Prepare for the physical labor aspects of the job. Research the weather conditions at your possible oil rig job. Decide if you can manage the aspects of physical danger.

Q: Once you've completed your degree, begin searching for jobs in the public relations or communications field.
