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.
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.I literally hate small talk, feels so awkward - its usually like a precusor to asking for something, why not get to it? If someone starts it with me though I will reply but proper replies rather than "yeah im ok wbu, wubu2, nothing much" etc.
Being introduced to someone I don't know IRL and small talk is literally the worst social situation I can imagine...
Not a fan of it really.
