Tell them to take an L and kill em with kindness.

It could be wfh? I get weird vibes but we’re all rolling with the punches and it’s kinda transactional that at the end of the day just focus on the work and the check. Eventually you’ll click or find a better team.

Who cares? Maybe because I am older, I don’t really care if people like me. As long as you are good at your job and your boss believes in you. I mean, I don’t specifically set out to have people not like me, but sometimes we just don’t vibe. There are cliques at work too, sometimes it is better to not be a part of them. Be friendly, be a rockstar at your job, and find your own tribe. If it is affecting your ability to do your job though, then that is another story.

I will add, I’ve made some of my best friends at work, it is just you can’t win all of them over.

Plus, you are likely reading to much into it.

And at some point you will meet people at work who you will form good friendships with, it just isn’t going to be everyone. If they are being intentionally nasty or making rude comments or anything like that, then that is a whole other issue and one you will want to address, but if it is just you aren’t bonding, then that is not unusual.

Like yourself.

I am here to learn and advance my career but he can be pretty nasty.
