My guess is that a large part of it is social. In STEM you don't have to be as personable to succeed. I'm perfectly capable of bringing a face, but even though I'm an extrovert god damn is it exhausting. Thankfully, working in stem I don't have to, so I don't, and I save my energy for non-work socialization.
- bawolff 5y agoIf you find it exhausting you're probably not an extrovert (extrovert/introvert is just about how much energy social stuff takes you, it has nothing to do with how much you socialize, how good you are at it, or how much you like it)
- dnautics 5y agoI mean what I said: I find it exhausting to bring a face. When I'm interacting with people in a more organic setting I gain energy. -- definitely an extrovert. My primary non-work activity is highly social (social dance).
