More that you shouldn't be searching for friends at work. I've made plenty of good friends at work, but it is not the default expectation. You clock in, do your job, clock out, get paid. If you end up working well with someone and become friends, cool. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago And that's the basis of what "professionalism" is. You should be able to work with anyone that's not an outright jerk, and if you find someone you like working with, that's even better! permalink fedilink source parent [–] untorquer@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago Gotcha. I don't think being sociable and open to friendships at work is "looking". I can also see how it could clash with someone's boundaries. In any case holding a grudge about being rejected is bad form. permalink fedilink source parent
