Just watched some trailers based on this post, and wow does this look like an involved game. So many moving parts, things to do and types of gameplay. Not sure if I’d enjoy it or be stressed the whole time, but hadn’t heard of it until now, so I appreciate the post.
Great scene. The political ballet and feigned incredulity are so ridiculous, but probably not far from what happens in real life.
What a great sentence, well said. I’m going to use that in the future.
Good point.
Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause chicks dig dudes with money.
I feel your pain, and your post speaks to me almost as if I wrote it. To make it even worse, however, is that I’m now in management for the last two years, and have to put on an even more false front when all I want to do is work. One thing I have gotten better at, is being straightforward. Instead of just dodging around it and trying to let them down easy, just saying “I really need to finish this assignment I’m working on, can we talk about this another time?” Or “hey I appreciate you wanting to tell me about your entire weekend, hour by hour, but I have several things I need to get to working on, we’ll have to chat later” and then just stare at them until they leave. It was uncomfortable at first, but I’ve gotten pretty good at it lately, maybe give it a try?
