Do you make small talk?

I hate small talk, but you have to be good at it in my job so my communication skills have improved an awful lot since I started. Outside of work I tend to just get straight to the point though lmao

No I'm not very good at small talk unless they start talking to me then I'm fine.

Being introduced to someone I don't know IRL and small talk is literally the worst social situation I can imagine...

This lol. let's just skip the "how are you" and "what you been up to" (especially cos the answers are usually 'fine' and 'not a lot just wasting my life atm') and get to the discussion. Even worse though is when you start small talk and someone gives you their life story.

Not a fan of it really.
