🤔 Hmm. First, I don't do this anymore...but when I was in my 20's and trying for jobs that I had absolutely no idea how to do, I used to fix my eyes directly on the eyes of whomever was speaking or explaining things, and nod my head just a tiny fraction as though I knew exactly what they were talking about. When I got home that night I would look up the big words...🤣

@popmol Not really. I just learned very early in childhood that I did NOT want to look stupid. (Genius older brother). 😉
