Que?
Must happen. As discussed with Junior, THIS LIFE IS NOT A REHEARSAL, SONS.
Shit just got mad real bruh. Truth in every word. What's the worst that can happen? 2 days may be the limit though before we start finding out the answer to that question.

inappropriate touching
I'd have to be the one doing the touching.
The key word here is of course "inappropriate". Something defined on a purely subjective level.
Speaking of which, the various new power stancers who have joined my company recently all seem obsessed with the lingering touch. Both male and female, they seem to believe that an affirmative clasp of the arm or a parental hand left on the shoulder will be the key move that makes me trust, believe, and work overtime for them. I was hoping the whole body physical recoil would have tipped them off that this was not a winning move but sadly no. Am considering next steps to be either a "This is my dance space, this is your dance space" Swayze word in their ear or an aggressive strategy of running up and bear hugging, friendly bottom patting strategy on a daily basis.
Haha nice one. Tell 'em about that foppish Mancini/Richard Gere hybrid dude who accosted you outside the pub.
You were having to fend him off with a shitty stick.

Obviously escalation is the only answer. Maybe reciprocal clasping, either in a kind of overly keen 'where is this heading' way. Or go for the attempt and fail, super awkward hover hand. Then just stare at it with a look of longing and desolation.
I may not be the best person to be giving advice on human interaction in a business environment.
Stand up, give it a very loud whoop and hold aloft your palm, in eager anticipation of reciprocation of highest of high-fives. When they look at you gone-out, follow with "COME ON! DON'T LEAVE ME HANGING, DOG!"

See, now, I envy those guys. I don't care what that says about me either.
I'm loving the way the killing machine on the left has steathily put his arm around her for the photo without quite having the courage to actually touch her. Warrior stage right knows his limits.

Maybe it's her. Maybe she's got an invisible field around her*, and that's as close as man can get.
* Superman nerds will know that it was an invisible force field and not steel skin that made him impervious, so anything is possible. Who is she though?

Ayo.
LOL "As seen on TV" S***e, the ladies love him and his sub Grant apologetic posh boy stutter. The silver fox is a low unto himself though thankfully he leans more towards the foppish and forgetful end of things than the wide stance hungry hands approach.
I think aggressive is the way forward, I'm going all out on fist bumps on Monday.
Ha ha I love those pics - does anyone have the compilation gif which highlight the highly professional rigor mortis grin the woman maintains through all the photos?

She be Summer Glau. Deduct 100 points from your sci-fi nerd point card.
But hover hand is not down to her personal force field. It generally occurs when the opposing forces of hot female meet awkward nerd.
Decided: we need shears bsck, I need a cd of his beats assp
PM me with your address and i'll get one in the post during the week, you might hate about half of the beats on it (and they will all be oldddddd).
On a Strut meet-up tip I found out afterwards that I was in the same room as the one Beatnick on Wednesday. I still can't get used to London beer prices, ??5 cans of San Miguel make me cry inside.

To be fair. She did play Supergirl in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse.

Just watched P.Crazy's vid.
Quite good actually, she is so nervous it's almost painful,
Having done three presentations in the last week I sympathise.
She talks about "passion", bit of a bugbear, a word sorely debased by its overuse as a currency in the public arena on the likes of BGT, X-Factor and the Apprentice.
"Lord Sugar, I am really passionate about delivering quality face creams..."
Just googled this TEDx group and yeah I would imagine that she got given the Passion theme for fifteen minutes before they all then went and had a brainstorming session on it with some awesome pivot charts. Having been to a few of these on a slightly chavvier scale I am amazed that companies still pay big money for these pointless celebrity chats which have absolutely no relation to business.
Having said that, I like MAH and thought the first bit about starting up was interesting in itself as well as her personal reasons for leaving Radio 1. Lost me with the Jobs and the final bit sounded like she's just been making Crib notes from Lil B's NYU talk.
God damn she was nervous though, was mentally willing her to sit down and take a deep breath.
We have the term banned at work now, apparently too close for comfort for epileptics in describing their seizure experience.
We now have to call it a "mind shower".
LOL, dear lord. Surely a mind shower is equally offensive to people who have suffered from water on the brain?
I'm curious how offended people suffering from epilepsy were on a daily basis.
Our current management is obsessed with "pieces" and "spaces" and I heard someone actually use the "raise a flag and see who salutes it" the other day. I need to start making crib notes from the Apprentice to compete.

This one. Maybe most irritating and dismissive phrase ever conceived. Lost it last week during a face to face with a bod at a well known social network who merrily chirped this at the end of a meeting regarding their utter f***wittedness.

Now I am going to pick up the bass and jam out Cameo's "She's Strange" until I have had my satisfaction.

Been rocking that since time. Actually mine is "Let's run it up the flagpole and see who salutes". You can action that one, mate.
My other fave for dismissing the input of others, is to interrupt with "Moving forward [pause], I think we should ..."
Goal being to delegate off all daytime activity to freeup Strut time.

Ah yes, I stand corrected Jimster. You see, so bad at this I can't even get it right second hand.
:face_melt: I'm going to ran that up the flagpole in meetings today.
Also, low-hanging fruit and, my personal bugbear, "Washes its own face".

Always my riposte, but only to juniors.
Talking of which, I see Junior the horse fell at the second.
