I have a friend in....

I must stop using that sentence "I have a friend in that Company or Department or etc..."

I wonder what would the person that we claim to be a "friend" has something to say about the friendship statement. I bet he/she would say something like..

1) - "Oh.. we're friends?"
2) - "Well...I didn't know we're friends but yeah, that's cool."
3) - "I don't know him."

Hahaa.. I mean seriously man.. it sounds a bit annoying yeah? When you hear someone keeps on sayin' he has a friend here and there in all those corporate Companies..

*Oh goodness.. please save these people.. *said my "friend"*

Well.. taking a lesson from this because I also say the same thing at times.. So, I think I'll move on from that "I have a friend..." to something like "I know someone... from that Company or bla bla..." or "I have an acquintance..."

That would sound not so exagerrating . Yeah.. That'd be more like it.
