strange question, maybe: I usually do not contact people about jobs once I've applied to them because I don't wanna bug them or make a bad impression. But, you know, maybe I'm doing that wrong? I applied to a couple low level computational biologist positions (I'm a comp chem kid who did protein work) that I seem to hit all the qualifications for. The job postings actually mention the PI for the group that the position is in!

Would it be a faux pas to just... out and out email them? And if I did, what would I say? "HEY WHAT'S UP I JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW I APPLIED TO YOUR JOB POSTING AND ALSO I'M A SUPER FUCKING COOL LADY"?
