Hi to all incoming bankers: Would you say that we're actually a pretty boring folk who just talks about career and deals all day

I know that some of my old "friends" are taking behind my back, saying that I am quite boring since all I can talk about is career or other stuff related to career.

If this is really all that important, start following sports or something.
