I wanted to add something I am observing at work today.  There is a tech that works with us in the room almost daily.  He is extremely nice and hard working.  He is very talkative and friendly.

I have been noticing for some time that he will always find something to talk about, and joke about. Often an endearing quality.  I then found myself often being irritated by this quality over the last few weeks.  Feeling that anytime I was caught with a free moment he would ask me a question.  Always in the kindest way of course, such as “oh how was your weekend” or “oh how did X thing go.”

I saw it today.  He is someone who truly has trouble staying silent.  I noticed this quality in SCC often.  Needing to fill the silences, the gaps.  Always entertaining, always bringing something up.

And I thought – that is insane!

How ridiculous, it sounds insane – it is insane.

Blab blab blab – such nonsense! Talking just to talk, bringing up random topics, never allowing a moment of peace!

I surely don’t want to be this way.

SCC needs to go – she truly does.
