I have only ever had stressful social interaction at work, except for my current job where Iโ€™m generally the only one there and as long as Iโ€™m within budget whatever I say goes. That is to say the only non stressful job I have done is the one that is 99% just me with no other people and I only even need to be there because itโ€™s physical work, the odd clerical thing is done from home on a phone work profile.

Donโ€™t get me wrong I have certainly had my fair share of bad work interactions but most were benign and some became friends. Although Iโ€™m not advocating for the office, I just think people like me wouldnโ€™t do very well without other changes, and I think there are more people who donโ€™t know how to make adult friends than we think. Iโ€™m not even an introvert, I just donโ€™t go to any place often enough to make friends from it
