I have never spent more time pretending to be busy than when I've had to work in an office. And god help the person who drags me away from what I'm doing every five minutes for "meetings".

I swear these people are just extroverted and lonely. If it can be summed up in a text or email, then don’t bother me.

I like being around people and arguably am extroverted, but I sure as fuck don't want to do that at work. Don't cross the streams, man.

I'll go out for drinks or food or whatever after work. But if I'm supposed to be doing work stuff, I don't want to have all the office distractions

Yeah that’s fair. I mean the ones that have endless meetings for the sake of having someone to talk to. Or mandatory fun.
