Definitely. I love talking to people about their work, whatever it is. It's an easy way to get someone to open up to you and you're bound to learn a few things

It's an easy way to get someone to open up to you and you're bound to learn a few things if you're willing to display your lack of knowledge in their domain.
If you approach the conversation with candor, it rarely seems trite
- cpeterso 9y agoI like to ask people about the strangest/largest/farthest/most unexpected/whatever they have experienced in their work. It shows genuine interest and lets people talk about what they know in a natural story format and since they are taking about something they have witnessed, they don't necessarily need to talk about themselves if they are not comfortable with that.
