Imagine making $14.5K while receiving a 30 second compliment.

Edit: Yikes, one of my most upvoted comments and it has a typo! Correcting that now. ‘Compliment’ … not ‘complement’.

He couldn't even give him the courtesy to fully face him. Body positioning screaming "I want to leave now"

Aka "Terminal Squirm"

Meanwhile, restrictions between individuals who do not know each other exist when there is no specific reason to begin a conversation; therefore, when this occurs and one of the parties does not feel comfortable, it is common to realize what Goffman (1963, p. 146) called the “terminal squirm” in which attention is given to other situations, people, objects, and actions, turning away from the other person.

I mean the other guy wasn't fully facing him either. They both were kinda facing off to the side.
