VI. Public Service Announcement Number Two

[calling_kali]

People in this building need to stop making small talk in the lobby. One, do I look like I want to smile and nod while you babble? And two, why should I care how you and your day is going? I don't, for the record. So let's just finish this conversation here, hmm

They're probably just trying to be nice!

[calling_kali]

Well I'm not nice.

[meginwonderland]

Oh. Umm... alright...

[calling_kali]

Fabulous, so glad we have this settled.

[turnedcorner]

How hard could it be to just smile and nod?

[calling_kali]

Unbearably.

[turnedcorner]

And it's somehow less painful to take the time to complain about it in your journal?

[calling_kali]

Why should I humor someone I've never spoken to and have no desire to speak to? At least by detailing my experience here I reduce the chances of this happening ever again.

[missmacdougal]

Why do so many people in this building seem to have problems with being nice? It's really not that hard!

[calling_kali]

Because it's useless, fake, and a waste of time.

[missmacdougal]

I disagree.

[calling_kali]

And you're free to your opinion
