People are the Problem.

Stuck at work listening to everyone's petty little problems with their perfect lives while I suffer in silence. Why is everyone around me unintelligent, babbling, naive, shallow, barely literate imbeciles.......who are happy?

Maybe they are too stupid and shallow to know the difference. 🤣

Hello

I remember feeling intense irritation towards the happy, sorted people around me when I was coming out of a depression. I mean, well enough to go back to work.

I don’t remember when it changed, but probably when I felt compassion for a fellow sufferer.

And I'm really glad everyone has time for everyone else's problems.

HI it called small talk and is a socially acceptable way to connect with others. Oh and no one has perfect' lives as it's not possible. x

With years I've just learned how to simulate my interest without really listening or delving into every rubbish that my poor ears have to experience. At some point I realised that any office environment has it and I just need to go with a flow, but keep the distance at the same time.
