The Comfort In Talking Shop

there is a warmth that comes with the talk of work--- when two or more individuals converse about skills & their prospective mutual context, of which they may or may not have worked together in for weeks, months or years, but which all parties speaking know something about because they all hold relevant experience in the area being discussed--- people who genuinely work at their jobs, whatever they may be, are able to find a kind of sustenance in the work itself which others may never find, if they spend their whole lives complaining about every little thing it is that they do--- these individuals may never know the comfort which comes with discussing the simple nuances of a job that is shared, which brings with it no obligation except the present work that is needed to be done--- unlike other communities which members of a workplace may also be involved in, together or alone, the job brings with it a sense of solidarity that may be unique to our species & which can lead to discussions of past employment and past experiences in our lives revealing that our paths have led us to such a specific juncture in time wherein we now toil together, until that time when we part ways & move on.
