True, Go karting you’re on your own mostly so all good. Anything else though.

Unless you work at a particularly aggressive branch of kwick fit.

I’m starting to think I was executed in the harshest possible terms not because I did my job well, made the company loads of money or did everything asked of me under budget month in month out but because I might not be the biggest _team player_ in the world.
I’m not even not economically viable. I was very economically viable!

It’s weird how sometimes even the friendships in the office that kinda work while you’re at work actually don’t really outside of it. Like you go for a polite pint or two after work to be social and it’s a bit…flat. I guess there’s only so much comedy slagging off the company and bosses and then you realise you don’t actually have anything else in common like you’re real mates who’re also into skating, same music, etc.

Luckily I have only had one partner over the past 12+years but the idea of mixing with the people in my previous jobs outside of work would be horrendous. People that are nice enough in small doses but you don’t really want to hear their life story or their political persuasions/casual racism etc.

I notice this a lot too. There’s a few people that I get on really quite well with at work - it just feels like I can chat about most things with them. Then, say for example if we’re walking together to the Tube or going for lunch together or something, it just never seems to click the same way. It feels a little awkward and like we’re both clutching for conversational prompts.
My theory as to why this happens is that at the office there’s always at least this safety-net of sorts, where if things do go stale, you just naturally go back to working or someone else chimes in, and there’s always a comfortable ‘escape’.

Yeah, this. I ‘get on’ fine with pretty much everybody, there’s not many I’d actually choose to spend time with outside work. That said, some of the closest friends I have I’ve met through work (including my wife!) but that’s a little bit different.
@anon90826813 I can be when I need to be 😉

That attitude won’t get you an invite to misanthropes club.

A person who dislikes humankind and avoids human society. That word is too close to so much about me, haha!

Oh. That is actually me. Nothing makes me more delighted than keeping myself away from anyone other than my friends or family as much as possible.
