The baby steps that seem so ridiculous, like the telling of the jokes or asking for a free coffee, it's hard for some people to realize how much those experiences transfer because they're like, "When am I ever going to have to ask for free coffee?" It's like you're missing the point. The point is to subject yourself to the same types of fear and discomfort that you will experience in a million other circumstances and to overcome that in a very sort of rehearsed way.
