I once had a person I worked with tell me small talk was useless; I couldn't disagree more. Small talk can set the base of a future relationship. You can learn a lot about a person from small talk. If you are meeting someone for the first time, what is wrong talking about the weather before you dive into a conversation? If you can't make small talk with someone, how can you carry on a conversation?
Social Media has changed small talk in today's world, what do you think Twitter, Instagram or Twitter are.
I have tons of small talk conversations every day from the grocery clerk to someone I'm trying to do business with. I treat every conversation the way I treat every person, which is equal. Never forget that you never know who you are talking to.
Have a great day
