You know how it goes, the I’m-just-asking-to-be-asking-not-that-I-really-care-obligatory “how are you” and the answer that comes “fine/good, how are you?”

And this is how it went with one of the support guys from our vendor:

Nick:  Hi, this is Nick, how are you?
Me:  Hey Nick, I’m doing fine, how are you?
Nick:  I’m always good!

This guy is ALWAYS good!  Dang, I wish we could always be good.  Don’t you wish you could always be good when someone asks you that?  I wonder if he just likes to say that or if he really is ALWAYS good.  He sounded pretty happy about that.

What a great response.  I should try it sometime.
