Why can't I friend very well? :D

I have been fine at work all week. Not weird or anything. But today I can't be social. This always happens to me and I have no idea why.

I'm not social in general. So what's wrong with that?

You can't always be "on" and sociable. We all have off days. It's normal. Accept that and you won't stress over it. If someone says something to you, say you're "having one of those days" and leave it at that. Don't feel compelled to respond any further.

you aint sociable here niether
@SW-User I'm not very good at it. I don't see the point in social interaction if there's nothing to talk about, and I don't understand why it is important, even though I know why it is. Do you understand what I'm saying?

I have the same issue, but I know my reasons might be dif than yours. I'll be your friend, if you want.

Work is not a place to be social, just being professional is enough.
@SW-User That's what I think. I'm not here to make friends - I'm here to make money. But it's difficult when the training part of the job requires you to "be friends" with your team. I guess I'm just not too-faced enough for that.

@lauriethecolourful I know how that can affect your training. People are just not good at being professional and they just want you to be too friendly with them. Anyone with a reserved attitude is not welcome. That's how these "gangs" work. I wouldn't call them a team.

Some people are like that. Socializing drains them. Others get energized off it.

You're an introvert nothing wrong with that.
Idle chat at work must feel senseless

it's unreasonable to be approachable and congenial every day 🤔
@tenente I know, but why does a lot of people seem to do it then? Everyone here always takes lunch together and talks non-stop to each other. The thought of that sends me insane. Hahaha
