chit chat with family nurse prac

[Anonymous]

If you go see a nurse prac and she asks about how your summer is going and you tell her you've gone to the Grand Canyon with your family.



Then she says, " Yeah I haven't been, but I've heard people who have gone who love it and others who didn't think it was that impressive."


Would this be an acceptable response?? Versus, "That's cool, (insert any random only positive response)" or ask benign questions about the trip??

OP you know the comment was a swing and a miss. You didn't need to ask us this. But "unacceptable"? What are you - the social and communication skills police?

Her response is perfectly reasonable because that is a very typical response regarding the Grand Canyon.

Her response tells me at least she heard you and thought about her response. Better than superficial response people usually give. Maybe that’s what you were expecting - a superficial response.

Agree. OP, stop looking for problems where there are none.

Her answer was rude and uneducated. Why comment on someone else’s vacation?

[Anonymous]

Maybe she was looking for you to tell her what you thought?

[Anonymous]

That seems like every conversation I've ever had or overheard about the Grand Canyon? What am I missing?

[Anonymous]

Maybe take meds for social anxiety if you're the nurse or meds for being a terrible person if you're the patient? The exchange is perfectly appropriate.

Her answer was clever. If left you open to answer either way. It invited further conversation. It's kind of lost on the scripted robots that inhabit the local area.

Yes, I know. Posters here would say, "Seen it. Boring."

It's a bit odd, but I went there and I was like ok cool.

You are crazy and sensitive OP.
