    The British have this down to a science;

    1. Start with pleasantries “you good?” Essential, always say “I’m good” if asked this or similar regardless of your mood, use tone to convey the actuality if you wanna be unguarded
    2. Talk about the weather
    3. End with the pleasantries, something that implies you will see em again, even if you know you won’t
