It is Monday today. The working week starts.
Wanna try something new? Maybe there is someone at your working place you never speak to. You might think he / she is weird or simply not interesting.
Go up to them. Say "hi how are you, how was your weekend". Smile at them. Observe what happens next and if the atmosphere changes.
I talked to our local weirdo the other day. Met him in the building where I work. Rumor has it he was in jail for 2 years. IMO he looks a bit like Jesus. Well you never know, do you? I went to him and said "hi nice to see you, how are you doing". He looks at me incredulous. Probably thinks who is this crazy female.
Suddenly he starts talking. Tells me all about his bricolages that he does. I say, wow that is good you do all these things. Good for you.
He asks if I work here. I say yes, at the moment we are restructuring the library. It is a big task and started in 2006. It is almost done now.
Suddenly he says, haven't you heard about the negative stuff? I say, what negative stuff?. He - well I am not admitted here in this building. As soon as they see me they call police and throw me out.
I say, well as far as I know this is a free country. The building is open. Why should you not enter here? Who should forbid it?
I say goodbye and we each go our separate ways.
