[ What do you think about professionals, and interacting with them ]?

[Rosexøxø]

- What do you think about professionalism?

- When someone is professional with you? Does that give a sense of relief, like you are cared for?

- Does it intimidate you? Do you equate it with the other person as having a type of intelligence?

• Do you consider professionalism intelligence? And how would you describe professionalism in your own words?
• Which do you prefer? Professionalism? Or Informal communications?
• Does it depend on the place or the subject topic? Do you have preferences for informal conversation? Say, for example, you prefer someone who doesn’t talk only in slang?
  
  

- Do you prefer a relatable informal?

or at least a funny informal?

- If someone seems “too crazy” for you, or difficult to understand, is that a deterrent?

Do you prefer informal harmony? Or chemistry?

- Was there ever a person you liked that spoke to you professionally? And did they balance informality with professionalism? Or was it just professionalism.

Let me know your thoughts on this!

I like this 💯

I’m curious also, what if they’re professional and advanced at what they do, but extremely impolite or even a know it all in how they talk with you, perhaps. Would you be okay with this? How would you respond/ react?

[DryGermanGuy]

This happened rarely. Some people have just antisocial personalities, no matter their occupation.

I have love and respect for professionals 💞

[Rosexøxø]

Just for a tad bit more info, could I ask if you have any relatives who are professionals? I’m curious if this plays any part as well. Thanks for the feedback 😁

[Xia1994]

Yes I do have some professional relatives as well 😊

Interacting with professionals acting professional is relieving. Who wants to discuss something with someone who doesn't know how to speak articulately in situations that require it?

[Rosexøxø]

Yes! I get exactly what you mean. At least with professionals you know they have a bit of know how, or at least expect this, but there are also some professionals who are also rude and know-it-alls; if you have ever met any of those kinds, did you get along with them okay? Was the service (s) they offered satisfactory for you?

[Friendlybro79]

You bring up a great point. I wasn't thinking of the know it all. Haha. From my perspective a true professional doesn't act like that. I have interacted with people like that but I consider it unprofessional.
I had a warranty on my washing machine and had a claim created and the "professional" showed up, assumed I didn't know anything, started blaming me for not, cleaning the drain filter, so I cut him off mid speech.

I said oh you mean this drain filter, pull off the cover to get to it, opened up the drain, showed him it was cleaned, explained that I clean it twice a year, put it back and closed it up. I then asked if he had any other sarcastic comments he'd like to throw at me or should I just kick you out of my house now?

I would have given him a chance to apologize and laugh it off with me but he said so many customers are idiots. Yeah I just kicked his ass out of my house. He was a dick bag lol.
