whatever you want to believe so you sleep quiet at night
are you aware that people need money to pay bills or are you so privileged this is a foreign reality to you?
and yet they wonder why I defend myself…
there’s no need to insult. calm down.
and it would be mind numbing to try to work straight for 8 hours at a time.
absolutely, that’s why I don’t want to quit, because where I am there’s lots of downtime, more and longer if I finish my job fast.
It also helps pass the time. Pleasant social interactions are fun and entertaining for most people.
again, absolutely: pleasant, not faked, but apparently I’m gonna have to learn to fake it. I don’t care about who is dating who or what a daughter gave a mother for her birthday. Who cares?
A lot of people also know how it feels to be left out, and try to include outsiders if they think someone might be feeling lonely.
wow, I might have to explain to them they’re not excluding me when they don’t talk to me and that I actually prefer it.
“I don’t like talking about myself,” is a perfectly reasonable thing to say.
only that I’ve been bullied in my past for being an introvert and keeping to myself and I don’t have reasons to believe this time would be different. Each time I’ve opened up to people it’s been used to gossip against me and to hurt me. Are you an introvert?
Recognize that their interest in you is a kindness, at least from their perspective, and to treat it like a burden is an insult.
hard disagree, they’ll use it to gossip about me against me and to hurt me.
I’m however happy you’ve had an easy life.
but they bore me, at least 50% of them.
Do you do that 10 second ritual with all your coworkers? because they interpret it as an invitation to endlessly talk about things I don’t care and it’s so tiring.
I could tolerate it if it was limited to 10 seconds, but they never stop. Why do they need so much attention?
