That’s Why She Makes The Big Bucks

Very small, very loud talk overheard in Starbucks on the Plaza, between a woman I came to realize was something called a Change Management Consultant, and her male client, the owner of an insurance agency. I ask you, Does this man sound like someone who is changing, much less someone who wants to have his change managed?

She: So, how have you been?
He: Good.
She: Wow! When did we see each other? After Thanksgiving?
He: Yeah.
She: So, things are going good? How have you been?
He: Fine, good.
She: Was Christmas good? How's your family?
He: They're good.
She: Wow, it's been so long. Was it before Thanksgiving? Was it Halloween? How have you been?
He: Good, good.
She: I'm glad you could make it.
He: Yeah. Sorry I'm late. I feel bad.
She: Oh, it's OK. But how have you been? Been busy?
He: Yeah. Really busy. I would have called.
She: So, what's been going on?
He: Not too much. Not much. Nothing.
She: You're feeling good? You look good.
He: Yeah. Pretty good.
She: Wow. So when did we last meet? It's been too long.
He: Yeah.

These are the types of overheard conversations that make me so happy I'm not a Change Management Consultant, or for that matter, a client.

  1. That's priceless... I hope he's not paying too much. I love that particular Starbucks for great overheard conversations... Oh, and the Panera on the Plaza is a goo one too.

  2. Thanks for the eavesdropping tip, Tim. I'm always looking for material!

  3. I wonder how many thousands of dollars I could make each year simply by looking nice in a skirt whilst repeating "how ARE you?" Hmmmm....

  4. My Pastor mentioned Change Management Consultants in church last night, shook his head and said, "Thankfully the Holy Spirit is our CMC." I couldn't agree more.

  5. Steph, Yeah. The feminists have missed a bet, I'm thinking.... ;)

    Amber, The HS is the only kind of change manager I can tolerate. Your pastor sounds like fun!
