13.: Different Good-byes
"Different Good-byes depend on how good a friend you are with the Guy." -D
"Okay, here you go." -G
"Level One: Acquaintance." -D
"That's a shake-hand good-bye,." -G
"Hey buddy, nice knowin' you, good luck, have a nice life." -D
"That's right" -G
"Okay, Level Two: Co-worker-friend." -D
"That's an arm around him, grab him, do a little hug, a little round the shoulder hug." -G
"Maybe a pat on the shoulder, a little squeeze maybe..." -D
"...Behind the neck, sure." -G
"Level Three: Good-buddy-party-friend." -D
"That's the real quick hug, and quick slap on the back. Okay..." -G
"Maybe a grunt or two.
Level four, lifelong buddy, you're leaving for years." -D
"Oh yeah. That's a full blown hug like you would your wife." –G
"Full blown hug, maybe even eye contact." –D
"That's a definite NO. The eye contact's gonna be a tough one. That's a major lovin thing. That's reserved for the wife." –G
"You think?" –D
"Yes, that would be a complete breach of etiquette! Sure. That goes to the brother if anyone. The eye contact goes to the brother." –G
"All right, forget it." –D
