Just to add... make yourself available... sometimes...
you do not want to accept EVERY offer to talk or have lunch that he makes...
So... have some bag of "things" you are planning on doing. Accept one offer from him and then the next offer... "oh, I'm sorry but I am busy then..." and then... MAKE SURE you are doing something from your bag of tricks, at that time. Otherwise, you could get caught in a lie.
And besides... it's part of GAL and it's good for you and makes your teeth and eyes strong...
