Casual Friday Observations
While sitting in a restaurant the other night, I couldn't help but overhear the conversation going on at the table next to us. Although I'm not sure a sales pitch really counts as conversation.
Some guys, no matter what they are talking about, just sound like door-to-door salesmen. It's as if they are trying to convince their companions that whatever they are talking about is true and just.
"Yes! The sky is blue!"
"No, Verizon is definitely the better cell phone company!"
"Of course you should come home and have sex with me! Doesn't my upbeat attitude and somewhat slimy brand of flirtation make you want to? 15 minute free trial period, act now!"

I wish you wouldn't eavesdrop on my dinner conversations. How rude.
Those slick talking types get on my nerves too.
I wonder if they have trouble convincing people they're sincere, once the sales talk tone becomes a habit.
That was you Kato? Wow...!
So, is she now a part of the Verizon family?
MC - sometimes I find myself in sales girl mode, not to be confused with call girl mode. That's an interesting point, if someone makes sales pitches for a living, how does that carry over to their personal life?
Now that's funny!
