#8. When you see me (or my feet) in the restroom at work, please do not ask me how that project is coming along. In the restroom, there is only one project that concerns me and you shouldn’t ask me about that one either.

#6. When a person you don’t really know casually asks, “How are you?” you should not take it as an invitation to share personal details about yourself and/or your problems.
