tokana's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Non-Questions II Update to previous post I got in to work this morning, went to get my regular mocha at the coffee machine and had this conversation:
------------------
Me: Good Morning CoWorker
Conversation goes on for several minutes as we prepare our caffeine fixes. This particular co-worker called me on my failure to answer their question and made it clear that they were genuinely interested in the answer. Hence, I had no problem providing it. The majority of the time, when people ask the standard question and I fail to actually answer, they don’t even notice. They’re so absorbed in themselves and their day that it wouldn’t have mattered what response I gave – so giving none at all wouldn’t have made a difference. If they do care and expect a response, all they have to do is ask once more or call me on my lack of answer and I’ll gladly provide one.
