impressions

We all need to make impressions upon people especially if we are looking for certain kinds of mobility such as moving up in a job or having more free time with the little corn pickers. Impressions are what we do and it is through impressions that certain kinds of people learn the art of manipulation. Some call it "impression management" while other's would say it is nothing more than manipulation and augmentation of social situations to suit ones self interest. These people really do think they're smart. They may be smart, but in reality they are known for what they are first; before anything else that may be better but remains on page four of the newspaper that is who they are. Everyone reads that one and everyone is aware of the intentions they represent in their presentation of self. Page one gives off the impression that they are something special due to the complex language and smooth handwriting.
