Galley Gossip: Bids are out! (my schedule, a little airline lingo, and a flight attendant poll) Those three words are exclaimed each and every month by flight attendants (and pilots) around the world.
Perhaps you've even witnessed a crew of four (or more) call out the three words above as they briskly walk through the terminal and pass another crew of four (or more) on their way to the gate. Maybe you've wondered, what does that mean, as you stood waiting for your delayed flight to board. And while you continued to stand there impatiently waiting, you watched as four (or more) cell phones were simultaneously flipped open and placed to the ear. Rest assured that call must be made upon hearing those three words.

Good communication is in how the message is received, not so much how you deliver it. If you know what the interviewer prefers, then you can work with that. Another reason people over talk, is that they’re not sure of the point of a question. Watch the interviewer’s body language. Make your weakness your strength.
