Networking without feeling pushy after 16 years as an administrative assistant

A friend suggested informational chats and I do not know how to ask. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I worry about bothering people.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I asked what they wish they had known at my stage. People enjoy answering that.
