It’s a common practice in most companies when someone new comes aboard that the boss walks the rookie around to meet the rest of the staff members.
Some of the new folks are very shy, and some are overly gracious, trying to immediately prove their worth, which I understand. One day, a rather inquisitive young man was introduced to me and instead of the typical banter of “Where did you go to school?” or “Where do you live?” he piped up with, “What is your primary function here?”
I had to pause. My primary function? That’s a really good question.
