I am disappointed at the fact I have no friends at work. It’s the place where we spend most of our days and the biggest opportunity to get to know people if you’re not very social outside of work.
Right now I am part-time and work 2 days a week, and I float around so I don’t get to see the same people every day. But there are still a lot acquaintances there who know me from when I was fulltime, but it never developed into a real friendship. It’s also hard when you have a mixed group of ages (older/younger) so you’re not going to be similar with everybody.
Even when I was fulltime and working with the same people every day, there wasn’t anyone I can call friend. I know making friends is difficult and depends on many things, and maybe their lives are already full. But it gets so lonely at work sometimes, just going and coming home and nobody to talk to while you’re there.
I am worried when I go back to fulltime that I will have the same issue. I know it’s a “me” problem and I doubt they have the same experience. Just venting about it I guess.
