Why do normie coworkers insist on turning the workplace into some kind of social gathering? Can't we just do our fucking jobs and go home?

No, I don't want to go for drinks with you after work. I see you 8-9 hours a day already.

>> No.11115448

today's workplace is structured in such a way as to keep people like you out of the upper echelons of the corporate pyramid. the whole idea is to feel people in who will sacrifice the other things in their lives in favor of the company. this ensures that the people climbing the ladder are the best possible drones that will carry out what needs to be done. you're either an idiot for not understanding that, or ok with just being the cannon fodder until you find another job

All other community pillars are largely abandoned or irrelevant now, so it makes sense that the more miserable sacks on the bottom rungs would try to push a replacement at work, while those at the top try to push it to get you to work more. I think this is why a lot of new agey tech companies are especially cultish.

These companies figured out that you get more with honey than you do with vinegar. They want you to work more by keeping you there, so they offer things like catered food, snacks, ping pong, and social outings to bond with your co-workers. We're just one step away from full on 1984 NWO indentured servitude with corporate housing, which will be the next big step in our enslavement.

Just so you know little kiddies. You only are really around your Childhood friends till about early 20's. After that for one reason or another you will be the one saying hey lets all go fro drinks in 10 years cause you barely have any friends but work colleagues and your wife and kids.

When it comes to work there are two kinds of people:

So you sacrificed one of the most important things in in life that are you friends, to be an NPC drone wagecuck earning a bit more in another far away city. And you fill your void getting drunk each evening with the drones you already see every day for 8 hours, and who you probably wont contact you, meet you and care about you if you changed offices. And the ones who didn't sacrifice their relationships with friends and family are somehow the "loosers".

Woow you are such a good goy, you alienated yourself from your people and your roots, you have no home and no friends, and also you say that it is the "normal" state of the things. And let me guess, you work very very hard for Mr Shekelstein so your wife, a girl you probably married out of fear of dying alone, wont leave you and be happy but it is never enough, she want more and more shekels.

Let this guy be an example of what not to do. Keep around the good people that deeply care about you, be near you family and friends. Work to live, not live to work. Form life lasting bonds with good people and keep them, stay in you homeland and hometown (unless it's a shithole and you are really starving of course). And stay away from used up roasties that want to make you their financial slaves in exchange of fake "love".

You're not the only one.

The problem is that everyone in the world is becoming more lonely because of attitudes like this. We're turning into a society of socially awkward, maladjusted people who don't have strong relationships -- so when things go wrong, we have no support, either emotionally or financially. A lot of them wind up heavily medicated, suicidal, or unable to contribute to society as they hit their 30s

You're introverted, and there's a lot of reasons why, but most of them come down to the fact that you were born into a broken culture and likely given highly stimulating but anti-social, solitary activities in childhood and adolescence which warped your brain.

As an adult, you rationalize that it's just your personality, and that's how you are, and you have no reason to doubt this as from your own perspective you're just you.

There's now millions of you, though. People with few friends. People who can't communicate without feeling exhausted. It becomes a problem for our society en masse.

Now that I have accepted my true solitary nature, I feel amazing...been living like this for 8 years now and life keeps getting better. I understand though that I am an oddball.

It's not real. It's a symptom of a societal disease that we've already seen another advanced economy pass through in the 90s, while under similar conditions, which produced similar people to disastrous effect.

I just looked up schizoid and was very shocked because it really describes me very well..although I don't think it is a hindrance at all. If anything, it can be viewed as a blessing in disguise since I can function well. If it was a hindrance, how come I lived the way I do for 8 years and I am happy? Like I said in my previous post, living a normie lifestyle for 3 years that consisted of typical social activities made me feel suicidal.

Social networks provide a multiplier effect for skills and motivation beyond what your solo efforts can achieve.

To be clear, I'm not saying this is necessary, enjoyable, or even possible for people like us. But evolution doesn't have much use for worker drones that live happily, die, and never reproduce.

Don't listen to this reddit-tier nonsense (also notice the reddit spacing in his posts). This retard has no idea what he's talking about, has probably no understanding of personality psychology, and is just spewing garbage from the septic tank that is his mind. It's easy to be introverted (e.g., you are highly creative and enjoy spending time alone to pursue creative interests, as opposed to being a people-oriented worker), and still have a rich group of friends throughout your life.

Honestly this is very difficult even for extroverts...people naturally grow apart with time.

>> No.11129062

>>11128939
I'm not sure how to put it into actionable steps, it probably boils down to your personality and being interested in others. My friends have all been made through school, college clubs, or work (the fewest coming from here), and that's pretty much it. Some of it is probably luck--running into the right people who pique your interest. Keeping friends around is another story, I work to maintain relationships even when separated by 1000 miles as people move on to other things, through running a discord server for friends. The only advice I can give is read something like How to Win Friends and Influence People if you struggle and want to change.

Before civilization, the most successful small bands won out against the least successful. Success defined here as claiming territory to harvest resources to support and create a new generation, starting the cycle over. That gives us baseline genetic templates geared towards that lifestyle.

Civilization's expanded the scale of bands, cut down on the proximity of warfare, but most importantly introduced additional complexity in ideas (Neolithic hunter-gatherers didn't organize crusades). While natural genetic code changes at a glacial pace, ideas and technology (say, birth control or genetic engineering) made possible by civilization evolve extremely rapidly and have a much greater impact on human lives now that basic survival needs are met for everyone.

"relationships" with coworkers (of any variety) are only in the moment because the second it comes down to one or the other getting ahead, all bets are off and people will start stabbing each other in the back.

and as other anons have said, companies now do things like have "release parties" where they give you $15 of food so you stay at work another 4-6 hours.

Jeff Bezos himself said it - "stop trying to find work life balance", in other words they not only want you to devote your paid time to work, but also your unpaid time.

To be honest, this kind of contributed to my introversion...spending a lot of time around people I began to get redpilled about human nature and to be frank I want nothing to do with it. Although I was born introverted I have to admit this boosted it to another level.

imagine writing this much to say stupid bullshit. but there's a kernel of truth in this oblivious dunning-kruger rant: the average normie is incapable of abstraction and genuine empathy, to the point i) they project their personal misery onto others, and ii) they're intuitively aware their own ability to enjoy life depends on others, so they (correctly) identify people who do not desperately need social interaction at all times as a threat to their own survival
it's all there is to know, really. for those of you who live your introvert life peacefully but remain baffled by normalfag hostility, consider you're the equivalent of a mirror held up to their face. normies have no depth and only go through life by avoiding self-reflection or numbing it with booze, sex and drugs. your lack of compliance is a threat to their mental stability

Historically there is really no such thing as work/life balance, becuase a persons life was based around his vocation in society.
For business owners this is also true, you basically wont succeed in a startup if you try to "balance" work and life.
I guess the biggest problem for a wageslave is that wage work is basically useless to society

>but most of them come down to the fact that you were born into a broken culture and likely given highly stimulating but anti-social, solitary activities in childhood and adolescence which warped your brain.
This is very true, video games and porn are the best example of these activities and it will be even worse for the future generations who are more and more interacting by proxies instead of directly.

That said it's in large part because connecting with people is hard too, in the past communities were local, you spent all your life with mostly the same people that you saw at your local market, church or simply at work, even in cities neighbors were very familiar.
You had all your life to build and develop bonds and trust with people, today it's just not doable, once you leave high school you move to place for college, then you move to another for jobs, then to another, etc...
Feminism, political correctness, multiculturalism and the destruction of the traditional family just worsened the situation even more.

Unironically this is also why sociopaths do absolutely fucking fantastic.

During the interview: Big fake as fuck American smile, yes boss, no boss, three bags full boss. Breeze it. Every. Single. Time. It's honestly just a chore and quite draining now tell the sheeple what they want to hear.

The hardest part is keeping your cover for as long as possible once you've got the job. I find that at about the year and a half to two year mark is when your manager and (((colleagues))) start to look at you as a grey man. Once that happens it's over, they will talk about you behind your back and conspire to essentially get rid of you.

lots of good posts ITT. as soon as you get a job somewhere you've got to let these fuckers know that its just one of many irons you have in the fire. Im doing part time work now at a major company and they all know i run my own small business and do a lot of trading and investing. I make sure they know this right off the bat so they know im not like them and this is just one page in the book of my life.

You guys call these people out for being NPC's but its likely you dont do anything to distinguish yourself as different either. I know exactly the type of autists some of you are. You think your exceptional but the only thing you exceed at is being a miserable fuck. The awkward reserved autist isn't the archetype of success.

I agree with not going out with coworkers though. I literally cants afford it. I have x amount of money i want to save each week and that leaves little room for constant mindless socialising. If i spend money on alcohol i want to drink it in peace by the fireside.

The sperg rationalizes his distance from humanity through denial: denial that he acts inappropriately, denial that he lives in fear of communication, denial that there's anything wrong with him.

You're not an ubermensch who doesn't need people or feel lonely, you're a fucking loser who's afraid of speaking to people and starts to sweat if he has to talk with a cashier. But of course, you've rationalized your weaknesses into strengths -- only a moron could engage in self-reflection without ever actually criticizing himself, congratulations!

You're intentionally blurring the lines between normal introversion and social pathology. The majority of "introverts" in 2018 aren't healthy individuals staying indoors to practice the piano or to write their novel, are they? They're fearful, they're neurotic, they indulge in fantasy, they're unstable in every sense.
