[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm the PP to whom you responded. While people will not ask you outright about your income, you will be asked often and immediately by total strangers what you do for a living. [b]DC is the only place I have ever lived in which this is not only socially acceptable, but expected.[/b] [/quote] Really? I have lived all over the country. People all over the place ask this question as a way to make polite conversation with someone they don't know very well. I don't see why it's rude.[/quote] I now live elsewhere, but I used to live in DC. I never get asked this question, and I have learned not to ask it of others either. People ask you how you are doing, about your family, what you did for the weekend, what you think of the issues in the news, etc.[/quote] This is the first question they ask contestants on game shows. I have a hard time believing it's something unique to DC. [/quote]
