Small Talk hey you, yeah you. Back for another one of my long boring completely irrelevant threads again. Welcome. You can have a seat. I always find it amusing how I irritate my coworkers and it's not because I don't do my job, I do my job way more then they do because I actually do my job instead of standing around talking. Which is interesting since as a extrovert I'm a people person but I HATE small talk. Like legitimately hate it. That doesn't mean I don't talk though, I talk if it's an actual conversation. Not just a "hey how are you, what's up how's your day? Good yeah okay." Because half the time I find people don't care about any of the things they're asking about they just do it to try to be friendly. And see that's not the way I am, if you don't want to know about my day but you want to ask me why I have a huge pimple on my face, ask it. You don't have to gear up to ask it. Now of course I have to make small talk with my customers, but my coworkers, nope. My boss is also not a small talk person so our conversations consist of, "can you grab that table?" But I've just never understood how people find small talk interesting. Does anyone who asks you how your day is legitimately care about how your day is? Anyway tell me some of your pet peeves and why they irritate you!
People who talk so loud when you are in a restaurant everysingle person can hear what they are ordering People
I feel like small talk is a good way to start a conversation if you don't know someone, because it gives you something to go off of which can lead to other, more interesting topics.
I hate when random pple try to be friendly. Like when walking down the street... Why do you have to say hi to me? Idk you. Keep it moving. And the greeters at Walmart. I hate Walmart. I don't wanna be there and I don't wanna say hi to you when I'm forced to be. Or people in line somewhere, when they start randomly talking to you about Oprah's weight on a magazine cover. Not interested. Pay attention, get your money ready so we can both move on with our day. Ehh. Guess Im just not a people person. ?
Andddd that's fine with me. I would prefer you to not talk to me. 5-finger-stinger please remove yourself from my thread for being off topic.
