Train Me, I'm A Monkey

I'm in corporate training. Some people have asked me how it's going so far. The training materials are very good and I'm learning a ton. As for the peers ... Well, let's just say I've yet to find one who is that perfect combination of "will talk to strangers" and "will not return all conversations to my sorrority/fraternity". Please note the AND in that last statement, as those two things seem mutually exclusive around here. Perhaps because this is my first time surrounded by the Tall and Socially Suave Frat Boys and Girls Society, I can't help but be surprised by their social codes. I mean, some people are so aloof and unwilling to carry on even a hint of conversation that you gotta wonder, "Dayng, who died and made you the reigning WASP princess?"
