How to Win Friends and Influence People

What I learned today:

When you have to work next to somebody, all day, every day, it helps if you don’t describe as “the bottom-feeders of society” the profession that person happened to be in during their last job.

I’ll give that tip to ya free of charge, kids. No need to thank me.

It’s also a good idea to avoid saying a similar thing to a girl you’re phoning up the day after you met her at a party, only to find out that’s what both her parents do.
