I am an advocate for honesty, so "I really don't care for you to know that much about me " could be my standard line. or "My autobiography will hit the stands in 2030 - give me a chance to accumulate content!

My version and answers: 1) Why can’t you come out to the club tonight? Because I'm not strolling into my house after 1:00 in the morning. 2) How much do you get paid? Probably more than you. Now I know you don't want to hear that an 18 y.o. is making more than you. 3) Can I rub your head? Do I look like a dog? I can bite you if you like. 4) What do your parents do? I'd bet your assumptions before this question would change after you see my mom pick me up in the Mercedes--or maybe the Porsche. 5) How much is your house worth? Are you serious? I'm 18; I don't know and neither should you! 6) Where are you from? My Answer: Canada Their response: But your black! My response: DROPKICK!!! 7) Where do you work? South Eastern Consulting Group as an Assistant Market Analyst. Oh I'm sorry, were you expecting Wal-Mart? 8) How did you get that job, is it your family's business? As a matter of fact, no it is not. I sent in my resume, sat down for an interview, and was awarded the job. Thank you very much. 9) Where do you live? My Answer: Stonegate Their Response: I've never heard of it, where is that? Their Thoughts: Probably one of those little trailer neighborhoods. 10) What is your religion? My Answer: What is yours? Their Response: Catholic My Response: Oh, so your a Christian. Their Reply: No. I'm not Christian, I'm Catholic. My Thoughts: And your asking me about my beliefs, ha! This is really true and ridiculously funny. My version and answers:

Especially for a Friday afternoon. You have a few of my colleagues on the floor. I think that I'm going to start answering some of these questions 'honestly', with a smile, but also ask them back (which is usually not done). Another tactic that I have seen used, is to just lie! That way when they are talking about you, the two or three people will all come with different stories, and realize they really don't know ANYTHING about you (as they should), it's really none of their business. My common phrase "I only work here"! D,
