Lack Of Communication

In the early 1980's, a rock group Ratt sang a song called "Lack Of Communication." Communication is a key in almost every aspect of life if you want any kind of measure of success at all. At your job, communication is all bullshit because upper management tells you what they want you to hear to make you all happy, motivated employees. As a friend of mine used to say, "they will piss down your back and tell you it is raining." Communication is also the foundation of a solid relationship. A large part of that is the questions that you ask. I asked "Have you heard from the guy you went on the non-date with?" What I should have asked was "Have you exchanged text messages with the guy?" I asked "are you still active on that dating website?" What I should have asked was "Are you still receiving messages from that dating website?" Technically I wasn't lied to, but it is all in how you ask the questions. Lynyrd Skynyrd sanf "Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies."I wasn't lied to but the ground around the truth was stomped all over.
