I'm sure they don't think it's annoying at all, they're probably glad/relieved to have someone nice and interesting to chat with for a few minutes before it's back to obnoxious, entitled people. At least that's how I am! The ongoing conversation people are almost always patient and understanding when there's an issue with their transaction or some other problem comes up, so I love them. Still, some of them tell me more than I guess I would probably tell a cashier x) Geez, I'm trying to think of a good example, but I'm drawing a blank haha. I like seeing my teachers outside of class too, it seems to remove some kind of barrier somehow and make it easy to approach them. At least, I feel that way with my college professors, I don't think I always thought that about my high school teachers x) Except my psychology teacher who was the mom of one of my friends. She was awesome. So you think we should each write up a quick bio/background thing for our new vampires? I think it might be helpful, since we have to know each other right from the get go.
