                I was given the "opportunity" to join a team yesterday, we're still trying to come up with a team name. So far: Sisyphus Pyrrhic victory Icarus Divine Comedy Soylent Green and the first thing that popped in my head when I found out Team Bataan Death March. Can you tell this is going to be a fun project?

                I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

                    Few open doors here, but start by simply saying something like "Hi, I'm South Mountain, nice to meet you all." Next, since it's a business meeting, you should mention their product and how much you hate it and now that you've met them you understand how it's so bad. This will make the conversation about them and people love talking about themselves and their hobbies. If you haven't won them over at this point (though crowd!), talk politics. People love a good discussion and politics makes for good discussions. It goes without saying, but be sure to speak your love for either Trump or Biden and your hate towards the other. You could throw in a little religion too if you like. Last, talk about your sex life. It makes you seem confident, which people like. Make sure to add some embarrassing stuff so you come across as vulnerable too. I feel like it's too early to start about butt stuff, but try to feel the room a bit and if it feels right you can bring it up. Good luck, you've got this! :D (Seriously, don't do these things.)

                                      Bring your curiousity. Ask about them. Ask every one of them a question (preferably different). What is your specialty on this project? What do you do for fun? Do we bring food for the group code reviews? Is a sense of humor appreciated? You should find quickly, that by asking a strategic question, you can keep the room talking. And this allows you to get to know them, and protects you from answering too many questions. If asked a question, I try to stick to shorter, more positive and upbeat answers. With enough details to engage them, and then push it back as a question to someone else who was listening, who did not ask the original question! (even if you throw them the same question).

This will make the conversation about them and people love talking about themselves and their hobbies. If you haven't won them over at this point (though crowd!), talk politics. People love a good discussion and politics makes for good discussions. It goes without saying, but be sure to speak your love for either Trump or Biden and your hate towards the other. You could throw in a little religion too if you like. Last, talk about your sex life. It makes you seem confident, which people like. Make sure to add some embarrassing stuff so you come across as vulnerable too. I feel like it's too early to start about butt stuff, but try to feel the room a bit and if it feels right you can bring it up. Good luck, you've got this! :D (Seriously, don't do these things.)

                                          Great points Sander, as usual. You did forget to mention talking about Jesus, since that always makes people comfortable around you.
