Brad’s guide to water cooler conversation before you have had coffee
Remember, pre-coffee your goal is only to survive until the caffeine can work its magic.
Rule #1 repeat back what anyone says to you with just a few works changed
Rule #2 Fire any questions right back at ‘em
Examples:
“Good morning”
“Morning”
“How are you?”
“Good, how are you?”
“How about that weather?”
“Yeah, how about that weather?”
“Did you see that game last night?
“Yes, did you see the game?”
Don’t get trapped into actually responding with anything meaningful!!! Remember, the last thing anyone really wants to hear in the morning with small talk is actual information, and trying to converse pre-coffee can be devastating!
Coffee is your goal, stay focused!!!
