How are you doing?
How are you doing? While most of my coworkers were tactful enough to avoid the subject of my altogether, I did have a few that stopped by my office to flash their... I'm sympathetic of your plight 'for show only' concerns. I hate people like this. You don't talk to them, they barely notice you're alive, but suddenly they feel it is necessary to pick the most visible moment of the day to stop by and offer empathy. They aren't expressing concern. They are cultivating an image. Fake and Bake was walking past my office yesterday when she decided to stop and back up a step, staring solemnly into my office. "How are we feeling today." Her lips were pursed into a forced frown and she was holding her hand across her chest. "I'm experiencing the deepest most sorrowful pain I've ever experienced in my life." The look on her face was priceless as she pulled back just a hair, the forced frown pulling up into a contorted half smile, half mouth agape expression. I stared at her as she searched for a response in her mind but could find none. She shook her head up and down and walked away. It's amazing what brutal honesty can do to a conversation. I need to start doing this more often. Happy Thursday! |

Nothing says fake interest when a we is in there. Your brutally honest response was just right. She did not deserve to have it softened in the least. Sad to say the the shock is unlikely to change her shallow ways.

It is amazing how many people don't really want to hear how you are doing when they ask. I usually soften mine with "OK" (when I'm really not) or "Hanging in" (also when more accurately that would end with "by my fingernails"). Ugh. I'm sending more virtual ((HUGS)). But I'll admit, I both loved your nickname for this one and also your shutting down of her comment. LOL
