And what do you do?

[j4]

Overheard in the office:

"What does your software do?"
"It's a management information system."
"Ah, I SEE."

[a few minutes later]

"Basically what we produce is a technology-based learning solution."
[Everybody nods sagely.]

That's the kind of conversation where I find phrases like "You're just not coping-strategy-oriented, are you ?" really rather hard to avoid.
