office people and their foolish little pleasantries….
i know it’s commonplace in society, but i really can’t stand when people greet you with “how’s it going?” or “how you doing?” because i feel obliged to answer. but really, when they say that they mean “greetings” or hello.
which is why i wanna cut out all the crap and just greet everyone with “hello”. but i get all these constant fake pleasantries every day.
honestly, NO ONE CARES how i’m doing. or if i REALLY had a good weekend. it’s just this office-speak that everyone is accustomed to. and it’s not just in offices, it’s EVERY WHERE.
yeah i know i probably shouldn’t freak out about something so minute, but really, I JUST WANNA SAY HELLO. i realize i can just simply reply with the same meaningless pleasantry: how are you?, but it doesn’t make any sense!
we’re usually passing people by as we ask that question, thus solidifying the complete absence of care or meaning in the words. if you’re walking or running by me in the hallway, don’t say “hey efrain how are you?” because there’s no time to answer the question, therefore, you really don’t care how i am.
just say HELLO, keep pretending you’re busy and move on.
and in return, I honestly don’t wanna ask how you are or what you did yesterday or if you had a good weekend. it’s not that i don’t care, it’s just that…i don’t care.
cuz more than likely you have a cold AGAIN, or you have a cough AGAIN(quit smoking you fool), or you GOT REALLY WASTED over the weekend and woke up with a hang-over and i’m supposed to be in agreement and support your retardosity and chuckle with you like an idiot.
anyway, my point is: I JUST WANNA SAY ‘hello’ or ‘good morning’.
QUIT THE FRIGGIN FAKE PLEASANTRIES!!
whoa. i really shouldn’t let stupid little things like that bug me.
