How to Win Friends and Influence People Class 2: Sept. 11

Glinda was waiting at the front of the classroom, and seemed less cheery than usual. Although there were still snacks in the form of a cake and tea. "Today's lesson covers the fundamentals of handling people. They are as follows: First, don't criticize, condemn or complain. Second, give honest and sincere feedback. Third, motivate the other person to genuinely want to achieve what you are aiming for.

"Today's activity will revolve around that. I want you to pair up. You will take turns proposing the craziest idea you can think of, and the other will try to critique without coming across as namby-pamby or overtly harsh. Any questions? No? Then let's begin."

[OCD up! Up super early for SP justice. Roster, syllabus, and other fun things can be found at that link. See OOC note for how to make today more interesting.]

"I guess I am." Chuck shot her a bright, if nervous grin. "Hi... Are you good at wacky ideas?" If not, he was going to have to steal something off Morgan...

"Not that I'm aware of," she replied, taking a seat. "There's any number of things here that I think of as 'wacky', so it's difficult to suggest something."

(hee! no probs!)

"Number of things for me too," Chuck admitted. "Big things. Lots of things..." Still a bit of an obvious newbie, this one.

"Rains of food?" she said with a smirk. "Just wait until someone you know," or he himself, "turns into an animal."

"Yeah... I've been warned about that." And still sounded weirded out. "Warned about both, actually."

"And advised on how not to end up naked somewhere." He could just see something horribly awkward like that happening to him, and winced at the very thought.

"Yes, that is a concern. Thankfully, I was in my own room when I changed back."

"So, have any ideas for this exercise?"
