Complaining is a conversation starter

 

From July 28, 2013. 

Just thought of being at work and complaining to Erin Timmons about the new computer. I realize it’s a conversation starter: quibbling, criticizing. But after my run this morning, I’m drinking coffee out my desk and watching the sprinkler, make it slow imperial waves, and I’m tired of that personality. Aesthetically I don’t like it. I would cut off the conversation with that person if I spoke to them on the phone. But I realize that's an easy conversation starter.
