You tell them you’re from Illinois, and if they want to know more, they can ask two ways: 1) where in Illinois….indicates that they are interested in your story and want you to tell them some more. Added benefit is they might be knowledgeable of more than just Chicago is in Illinois. 2) Chicago?….they aren’t interested in your story and are likely shallow in their knowledge of our great state and all it has to offer . How you proceed from there is up to you. |
