Therapist: Describe yourself in one word.

Me: No.

@Fickle_Filly Pres. Calvin Coolidge was famously a man of few words. At a dinner a woman said “I bet my friend I could get you to say three words”.
“You lose”, said Coolidge.
@Fickle_Filly I love this and will definitely use it the next time a therapist I'm talking with about possibly working for me asks it. And of course she will.
@Fickle_Filly
Reminds me of my best moment in a job interview.
“How would you describe yourself”
Me: “Laconic”
Cue tumbleweeds and birds chirping…

@shiawase

Nice!

There's an old joke about a person filling out a job application. Flipping it over revealed a blank page save an essay question at the top: "Describe yourself."

The applicant thought for a moment, and then wrote:

"Concise."

Out of curiosity, did you get the job?

@Fickle_Filly @RickRae
Didn’t get the job, but no harm as I wasn’t a good fit.
@Fickle_Filly Reminds me of Gumby's dog, Nopy.
@Fickle_Filly Therapist: Why such negativity?
