On a recent ride home from work i found myself in a train car sitting next to some financial type. Right as the train was about to leave the station a Larry the question asker recognized Freddy Financier and sat down facing him in one of those awesome forced interaction quad facing seating arrangements. Larry proceeded to run down a seemingly infinite list of mundane and useless questions. The line of questioning started with, after a breif greeting, “what are you reading, tax stuff?”
“No jsut catching up on some emails, i printed out before leaving work.”

So right there you have it, in the response. I’m doing something that takes my attention. Larry however un-detoured plows ahead.
“What, do you work on wall street or something?”
“No but i am a stoke broker”, says Freddy, still looking at his stack of unread email.
“you must make the big bucks huh?”
“I hope to someday”, says Freddy. Its beginning to dawn on Freddy that he has a 35 minute train ride a head of him and all forecasts point to continued flurries of unavoidable questions. Best to dig in and brace for the storm. Keep your answers short and try to make then non leading. Anything you say can, and will be used to build follow up questions. The topics ranged from comparative to slightly intrusively inquisitive. I enjoyed the questions involving dress code for Freddy, who has to wear a suit everyday save for summer dress down Fridays where one can forgo the jacket portion o the uniform. The dress code took Larry a bit of explaining to understand, apparently at the Un office Larry works at he can wear what ever he wants, for hes sequestered away in some dungeon scanning documents, which by the way explained his mole like appearance and his awkward socializing. God love him. If it weren’t for these forced socialization’s some people wouldn’t come in contact with other people, even while surrounded by them on daily basis.
