What kind of work do you do?

If you had a quarter for every time you´re asked that
question, you´d be on your way to a simple answer - count my quarters! This overworked phrase is still the first out of many mouths when no worthy conversation comes to mind. How do you feel when you are asked that question? Most likely, you assume that the individual asking is making polite, but meaningless conversation - and probably doesn´t really care about the answer. Try a different approach. Ask not what a person does, but instead ask how a person likes to spend their time. You´ve allowed the respondent to choose how they would like to answer - and you´ll likely get a more interesting response to boot.
