The other day I volunteered for ”a little experiment” during a work training. Turned out that the little experiment was about teaching us the value of clear communication. I was given a drawing and told to make the others replicate that drawing without them seeing the drawing or asking me questions, or me telling them what the drawing depicted. The others were instructed to guess what the drawing depicted as soon as they thought they knew.
The trainer was shocked by how accurately the resulting drawings matched the one I was given. Said that they’d never seen something like that before.
I’d love to rub this into the face of my ex, who, during our break-up, told me that I needed to take a course on communication. Sadly we’re no longer on speaking terms, which is why I’m telling you all, instead.
