Im with JORR on this . Just had rogue jr's 4th b-day party last weekend at one of those jump around kids places. 13 kids from his daycare came, most with their Dads ( guess it was Moms day off for this) so it sort of fell to me to take point and engage these guys . When Im not being sent home from it, I guess my job is somewhat interesting to people so that was the general conversation opener for these guys." So Barb tells me you're a *******" ( I know, douche or asswipe suffices as well) I fucking HATE talking about my job ( except on message boards) and I give very little back in the way of feedback to indicate I want to continue the conversation. So the conversation dies out and we sit there with out arms crossed looking at little jimmy fall off the monkey bars. Great way to spend a day off.

That's good.

What you should say is: "I've posted nineteen thousand times on CSFMB. What have you done?"

"Formerly a confidential snitch for the I.R.S., doing a little drug mule work on the side now but the big action is in the contract killing game...

...So, where do you work?"

Start dancing and ask them if they'd like a Handy Andy.

I like to know what people do. It's interesting, sometimes you learn something, sometime you can help somebody out or they can help you, sometimes you can pay someone a compliment. People spend a lot of time at their job, if they like it you get a sense of who they are, if they don't you might get a sense of how happy/unhappy they are or what motivates them.

Yeah, some people have interesting jobs. And I guess some people might find at least some of the stuff I do/have done to make money interesting. I just don't think that's why most people ask the question.

We all need money to live. I think there are a lot more interesting things to talk about than how we make it. This may be how I answer the question this weekend: "I'm not going to tell you what I do. But I will tell you what I love."

Do you really think that? I know I hear people say that they love what they do. And of course we know the old saying, "If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life." I've had jobs I've hated and jobs I haven't hated. But I've never had one I loved. I love training racehorses. But if I absolutely had to be at that barn every morning at 6:00 a.m., it would be a job and I don't think I'd love it anymore.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

Not disagreeing here, but that thought just never really occurred to me
Really, I could care less what anyone does for a living...wouldn't make me think any more or less of a person , unless it was something really bad like a pimp or something i guess

Me either, which is why I wouldn't ask the question. My go-to icebreaker is "Where are you from?" What neighborhood did you grow up in? What high school did you go to? Most people are going to be from Chicago or the suburbs and I know enough about various places that the conversation can take off from there. If they're not from Chicago, I still usually know a fact or two about a place that I can roll the discussion from there.

One time I asked a girl where she was from and she said, "A small town in Southern Illinois. You've never heard of it." I told her to try me and she said it was Olney. I started right in on white squirrels. I'm pretty sure I got laid that night.

Usually just knowing how to properly pronounce Cairo is good enough to get you respect.

When I tell people where I work they assume I fall into one of two categories. I'm either an obscenely rich trader or a runner making minimum wage


As if there is nothing inbetween


My job is kinda interesting to people so if I want to talk to them I open up, if not I just say I work in an office for a food company

What do you do for a living?
Sarley: i'm the Chaunce's bitch

Joe, if that is your real name, the question does matter, at least when I ask it in conversation. The answer leads to the next step of whether I am going to be working you as a potential client. You are in sales. You know this.
