Corporate Practice

I tried out my corporate communication skills with Ex-Boyfriend last night. He called around nine.

Ex-Boyfriend: Hey, I think I'm just going to stay here tonight, but I wanted to know what you were doing tomorrow night.
Company Bitch: I don't really feel like leaving my apartment tonight, but I think we should get together tomorrow night.
Ex-Boyfriend: Definitely. So I'll give you a call after work?
Company Bitch: Why don't you give me a call after work?
Ex-Boyfriend: All right. We should go out downtown.
Company Bitch: I was sort of thinking we should go out downtown tomorrow.
Ex-Boyfriend: Okay, see you tomorrow.
Company Bitch: Okay, good night.

I swear, it was one of the easiest conversations I've ever had. Perhaps there is something to this corporate communication thing.

I haven't yet had to address the hurdle of when you actually do not agree with the other person at all. But maybe that is the point--to look good and be agreeable at all costs?

I'm going to implement my new found skills during work today.
