How are you doing?
-
What are you supposed to say when someone asks you how you like your job. And you hate them, are in a shit mood because of them, but are in a professional relationship and can't exactly speak the truth. Example: Q: "Oh, so how do you like working here?" Internal Answer: "Complete shit, misled from the beginning regarding pay, vacation time, and technology used." Actual Spoken Answer: "It's different."

Professionalism is just a game on that level. A true professional works with the best interest of the party paying the bills in mind, and unfortunately it is sometimes tough to do. That doesn't mean, however, that you can't express your true feelings after giving notice that you are leaving, provided you don't care about burning that bridge...
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

I'm English, so the standard response would be "Mustn't Grumble", it covers a multitude of sins, and it can even be misinterpreted as "fine" or even "good". Occasionally the English reserve pays dividends, most of the time it is a pain.

Oh, I understand professionalism, and it does cause some dissonance between my thoughts and my words. I just left my old job and started this job 2 months ago, after being very misled during the interview process.

Tell them you "Well I finally am able to get that root canal done" They will likely think because of insurance but in reality you are doing it because it is something to look forward to :laugh:
Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

Keep your head down and plan your exit strategy.
