Anyway... when I did work with programmers, to relieve tedium... an occasional conversation would occur... between people working... pee breaks... must've been "girl" programmers. Oh, wait: I did take a pee break today...a whole bunch of us were in the men's room, standing at the urinals, and I noticed that Bob finally found a new hair gel that's really working for him...steve was showing off his new shoes, which I must admit, really went well with his outfit...just perfect for the cool newengland fall weather. Joe is kind of down because his gf hasn't called him in 2 days, and he's starting to worry...
NOT
sorry. Its just 4 introverted guys in a messy work-shop-ish office, each engrossed in his own little world, playing with his own erector set, interacting as little as possible. Occasionally, the steady whirring of the server cabinet fans is interrupted by a "papparazzi" user that pops in, whining, "I can't print", and one of us will go over to the printer, jiggle the power cord that "someone" kicked out of the wall, the machine comes to life and the paper starts shooting out, and we think (cuz we aren't allowed to actually "say") "gee, whiz! look at that. rocket science!" then we go back to the bat cave.
On top of that, he'd get huffy when I'd talk to OTHER people, go to book clubs... well sh!t, give me a break... you don't want to talk, fine... I do... see, I don't have that problem. In fact, just the other day, W informed me that "we" can't go to a party we were supposed to go to this weekend, because my parents ("the retired ones") are too busy to watch S4. I suggested that she could go herself, and I'll stay home w/ s4...she didn't seem very enthused about that. I understand being that mentally engaged all day, the last thing you want to do when you get home is mentally engage... but... it's part of the problem.
for sure. I'm just sayin...it would be easier if I had something to talk about that wasn't so obscure, and didn't require drawing diagrams.
