It's time to say goodbye, but I wish it was not
I remember our meeting fondly. He walked up to me, introduced himself, and said, "what do you do?"
I replied, "marketing."
"No, seriously, what do you do?" he said with a smirk. "Nobody really does marketing, they do sales or something else."
It wasn't necessarily what he thought, just what he said. He wanted to provoke a reaction and he sure got one! Within minutes we were firm friends, and he was officially one of my first friends I had met since I had moved to Sydney, the big smoke. We both kind of got each other coming from small rural towns in Australia.
