Malcador Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Was engaged in conversation by a lady here in the office but forgot to exchange names. So now have to seek her out and introduce myself. This is actually more relevant than you may realize. Many people considering remembering or asking for names as extremely important, I am terrible with names at times and this can be very embarrassing if you have a sales role so I worked out effective ways to get someones name so you dont look silly In this case I would say something " thanks for the chat the other day, I enjoyed it. Whats your name by the way, I am Malc" This way you are recognising the conversation as relevant but you also want to introduce yourself Well my initial concern was why she was talking to me so was off guard. Only people begging for change or psychos talk to me first 1 Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only people begging for change or psychos talk to me first I have different customers and I am always talking to people, its not uncommon to have an initial chat to someone that could be quite long and interesting yet forget to ask each others names Sometimes the chat is enough and I dont get the persons name but if its more significant then I ask peoples names. And generally its always me who has to introduce first when I talk to strangers "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

teknoman2 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 the weather changed completely overnight. yesterday i was wearing a t shirt and was hot, today it's cold even with a jacket on The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players...

Nepenthe Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 I was gonna post about how awesome my new job is... but instead, I'll just say that if the witch who ran the last joint had never let me go, I would never have wound up in what people tell me is the best law firm in the country. Sometimes you have to lose pretty much everything before you take the next step (I had to move back in with my mother, ffs) 2 You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

My job was the bulk of my income but not all of it as I've always tried to have multiple income streams and I'll still be collecting a check until February anyway Not professionally The reason I asked about the whole stripping profession is despite what some people think about why people work in strip clubs I dont judge how people earn there money because unless I have walked in someone shoes I dont know there story and there personal journey So for me its a job, I see absolutely no issues with it "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

teknoman2 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 that the last big update for windows 10 did some unspeakable things to everything in my HDD. some of my installed programs don't work and some are just gone. even some folders are missing... microsoft The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain.
