If you weren’t paid and wouldn’t work, would you still go to the same office, and would they allow you there? If not, you are probably there to work.

- jlokier 6y agoConversely: If you were paid and work there, but every time you did something that looked like socialising someone would come over and tell you to stop, reminding you that you are there to solely to work, would you stay there? If you'd leave, you are probably not there solely to work.
- Nursie 6y agoA lot of people's workplaces do operate like that, though not anywhere I'd want to be. But there certainly are limits and if you appear to be socialising more than working many places will ask you to perhaps refocus your attentions.
