where do you live op

do it squirt

1AM getting drunk as f*** rn

SEND HIM BACK TO THE OFFICE

Nigga said “how do I maintain the ability to talk to women without an office commute???” be f***ing serious rn my nigga

Conditioning what are you nigga, Pavlov’s dog?

Because the nigga wants to create every excuse imaginable rather than looking himself in the mirror and saying “nah, I’m just p****” nigga would rather go back to commute to remember how to talk to women and people as opposed to just going to your local bar down the street

We get threads like this about wfh all the time and I give basically the same response

I don't know how people can live a life where they need work culture in order to leave the house

There's social opportunities literally everywhere, op just needs to make himself go out there

That was years ago at a third party call center job and I've got a better first party job now that pays way more. the consequence is its wfh

it was all I needed at the time because it was a big work place with a lot of people to talk to. So if I was having all my social needs met and making friends to do stuff outside work with then yeah. It sounds like a lot of you never worked at a place with people you liked and are projected that into me being a loser

Bruh honest ty these replies are so annoying. I spend a lot of time outside home as is with obligations at church, cafes to study/art in, and I stopped going to the gym but gonna start that again. chatting with someone here and there is one thing but community is different, you know? like I cant help that others never liked their coworkers or made friends at their job lol

but yeah, hopefully you find an irl community of people like you too to connect with...

i get it. if you have great coworkers and a little-drama workplace it makes a big difference. But again this is not WFH-induced then.

It was always risky to rely on work for things like this. Work places evolve and/or change rapidly depending on circumstances and teams. The fact you now WFH is literal evidence of that. It's not actually long-term stable enough to satisfy a social life on its own unless those co-workers are being flipped into long-term friendships

Are you interested in going to interest-based events, concerts, classes, sports, etc... ? A few users have mentioned going to public things that already are out there and trying to carve community from there. You're not actually mentioning things that are community-oriented outside of church (fantastic but you've already explained why it doesn't work)

You never really responded to multiple users' good advice for finding local community and then the initial post gave a bad impression on your life outside of WFH

or maybe JUST MAYBE america can lower the working hours required for full time work

Good perspective

where do you work?
