It’s pretty messed up that you spend (depending on your job and hours) 40ish hours a week with people. But it can really screw you over being friends with them.
I’m a friendly person, I enjoy working with my colleagues and always attend the annual Christmas party. But I always struggle with the fact I just cannot be fully friends with people I work with. There’s so many ways that friendship dramas can effect your workplace relationships or even job security. Let alone the odds of being friends with a snitch.
I don’t add any of my colleagues on social media just in case anything I post comes back to me at work.
But I genuinely detest that work places can be so toxic so easily that it’s just safer to not be fully friends with your colleagues.
Does anyone else feel this way?
