“OK, good luck for the future then!”
Question 3
You’re meeting a person for the first time. You decide to show an interest in them by asking the question, “What attracted you to your current job?” You notice that she shuts off and doesn’t really answer the question. What does this tell you?
She’s a bit uptight! Why does she work in a job that’s all about people skills if she’s like that?
Maybe you asked a personal question too early in the relationship.
