Such Common Behaviour

by LisaMay



I do like getting out and about. It’s a busy life and I enjoy it; it’s so worthwhile seeing all those smiling faces. I travel a lot with my work -- I  often go overseas, but I find just as much pleasure closer to home.

I aim to keep a sharp focus on my surroundings and the people I come face to face with, but I am often in the company of amateurs rather than professionals, so sometimes my automatic responses are not always appropriate. I have found that a hands-on approach can get better results. I’m not scared of manual work, even though I am a card-carrying member of the digital era.

I’ve been caught flashing a few times. Perhaps you think I’d be more at home in a red-light zone -- where I can expose myself without consequences in a small, dark room. Another characteristic is that I’m not very diplomatic; I never lie -- sometimes I put people in a bad light and their egos take a hit. I realise that I take more than I give, but I’m trying to develop a better image. 

Hey, look this way. Say cheese. Snap! That will be a lovely photo.
