It's a form of performance, really. And you're so right about the sense of relief when a client shares your sense of the world. A little bit of a secret bond gets established.

I didn't talk politics unless the student brought it up first. My sister is a real estate agent in Ventura County. She never talks politics with her clients.

Those are the best moments on the job sometimes!robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06386655587963143782noreply@blogger.com
