I have found that one of the best ways to respond to even lame small talk is to get real with the person. Why not tell the next woman who responds with this statement how many others have said this to you and what you would prefer? Be nice but sincere, and look her dead in her eye. Works for me.

Default YOU? A career counselor?

You should be flattered, consider the alternative. At least they don’t point and blurt out ‘YOU - A career counselor!?’, immediately followed by throwing their head back and laughing!

Lol, yeah, it was..except that my buddy wasn't as lucky as Ross.. I tried to help him with his lack of confidence but there are some situations where, after awhile you just shake your head and sigh...

I'm a woman, but in spite of that, even I can come up with a line to get some free sex out of that line they throw at you that bothers you so much.

Sample:

You-I'm a career counselor.

Her-Oh, I could use some career counseling.

You-Well i'll give you all the hints you like if you want later on in my apartment...

Her-You're so naughty. (smiles) I might just take you up on that offer big boy.


2 hours later, you invite her in to your apartment for drinks and some "career counseling".

I know that this is your schtick, but just this once I am gonna play along:

What in the heck is wrong with you? Can't you tell when you are getting the green light?

You gotta admit, he does have a knack for sucking us all in to these!

i personally think he just sits around and tries to come up with stuff that is so absurd that you have to reply! I guess thats his entertainment!

Ever notice that he makes a thread, maybe responds a few times then moves on to the next one? he never follows any advice, and rarely even acknowledges it. At least we are laughing lol
