Hi everyone,
I'm reluctant to do this, but I could use some advice.
I'm posting off topic because I'm not out to stir up trouble.
If you e-mailed someone about volunteering, and that person replied, "Great to hear! But hate to tell you that's not my job any more. I'm forwarding your e-mail to Mr. So & So."
"Mr. So & So" happens to be in a very high position of authority and is probably quite busy.
What's an appropriate time to wait for a reply? A week? A month?
E-mail him direct even though that doesn't seem to have worked in the past?
Suggestions welcome. Wish I could be more specific, but prefer to err on the side of discretion. : )
thanks in advance
