There's a large political gap with most my coworkers and i just can't with daily water-cooler talk. Like small talk can be fine to pass the time but as a primary means of socializing on the daily? The company wants a good social atmosphere but I can't hide my boredom. So i mostly listen quietly until everyone gets up to go to their desk because i don't want to work either.
Looking for a workplace i can talk about real shit without offending people's sensibilities, and do something meaningful 🫠

My philosophy:
Nobody remembers normal so why be normal.

I am aware, I got called a 'little cretin' while on site with some coworkers.

I know. We've talked about it. It's ok though, cause apparently it's endearing? At least we can be honest with each other, so that's cool lol

We are all weird, but some people hide it well and others have either the confidence or ignorance to stay true to their weirdness.

I’m the weirdest coworker, but I really love cleaning, so nobody minds (except for the asshole coworker, but she’s mad for the wrong reasons).
