If you don't know the girl very well, it makes sense to first interact with her publicly on her wall. This type of interaction is a bit more casual, but whatever you say or share may be subject to the comments and likes of others, so keep that in mind. To get a conversation going, try making a good-natured joke about something she's posted. This shows that you are engaged with what she's interested in and that you have a sense of humor. Keep your jokes clean and don't try to tear down any other comments with yours. If she likes or comments positively on your post, that is a good sign. You could try progressing to a private message, if she's receptive to your wall posts. Photos are a good way to reinforce a connection with someone you like. If you have photos together from a day at work or school trip, you could post them and tag her. You could also share a funny photo that is not of the two of you but appropriate to a post she makes, such as a meme, to make her laugh. If you and the girl you're trying to chat with have any inside jokes, post one on her wall. Inside jokes are good because they don't tire out quite as easily as other jokes. Posting one (even if it was created in a larger group) will make her smile and cement a bond between you. In all your Facebook wall interactions, strive to be kind. It can be hard to read sarcasm online. If your tone is difficult to discern, she may interpret your posts as critical, even if that's not how you mean them. Phrases to avoid might include, "I'm not rude; I just say what everyone else is thinking."

While you can control your weight to a certain extent, your height is another story. The good news is that not all models are tall and thin. If you're shorter than 5 feet 5, consider modeling petite clothing. If you have a medium-to-large build, consider modeling plus-size clothing. You could also model items like shoes, makeup, or jewelry. In these fields, agents and scouts focus on specific parts of your body like your hands or feet. Even if things do work out, you'll likely need something to fall back on by your mid-20s. Don't wait until you need to make new plans. Start studying while you're modeling or looking for modeling gigs. If you're traveling for work, talk to an academic adviser about online courses. Modeling isn't the only career in the fashion industry. With a BA in journalism, you can write for a fashion magazine. A BFA in photography and an impressive portfolio could land you a really nice living as a fashion photographer. If you have a knack for figure drawing and fiber arts like sewing, you should think about becoming a fashion designer.

One-sentence summary -- Consider other paths in modeling. Go to college. Consider other fashion-related careers.

" Depending on what time you are working, start your call out with a greeting that reflects the time of day. This is a more personal way to greet someone while still keeping it professional. Callers will appreciate you wishing them a good day. You can also thank the person for calling your company to show that you appreciate their business. When someone calls you at work, it's important to tell the caller who you are. Give your name and some context for what work you do when you first pick up. This will start a conversation and avoid having too many questions from your caller. Try saying, "Good morning, this is Jacob from Quickie's Print Shop." If your job is to help customers or clients, add a question of how you can help onto your greeting. This will let people know that they've reached the right place. It will also help you avoid small talk and get straight to the point of their phone call. During this brief moment, you'll become aware of whether the caller wishes to speak with you or whether you need to take a message or pass the phone to someone else. During this fact-establishing moment, remain courteous and don't interrupt. If the other person hasn't given their name or it isn't clear to you, be sure to ask for clarification at this point. You can prompt people for information by saying things like "How may I direct your call?" or, "How can I help you?" Some people will launch into telling you their problem before you have a chance to intervene. Stay polite and let them know that you've heard their request but that you'll need to put them through to the person whose role it is to deal with their matter. If you have to ask them to wait, tell them that their call is being directed to the correct person. Say something like: "May I put you on hold for a moment while I redirect your call?"
