..I brought this same idea up on my radio program today and here is what one listener wrote…interesting perspective…
I was listening to your segment this morning on your radio program regarding what to say if asked by your boss point blank, “Are you looking for another job?”
I turned to thoughts of my nephew who has Asberger’s. People with Asberger’s are extremely literal. One time I called and asked my nephew what he was doing, and he answered, “Talking to you.” 🙂
I really liked your “answer a question with a question” approach. But if one were pressed for an answer, would one not be able to take a literal approach to the boss’ question by answering, “Not at the moment” or “Not at this time”? In strict literal terms, the answer is truthful, even though evasive.
Just thought I’d share the idea. Feel free to comment or not!
not a bad perspective…
