Are you sure that this attitude is the minority? I can easily go have fun with people outside of work, so I have no incentive to put up with the annoying parts

  Well you have to work, so it's better to do it with people you like. Obviously, if you didn't have to work, you wouldn't work just to see office mates. But if you do have to work, slogging away in a common place with friends is more compelling than sitting behind a computer.

    >But if you do have to work, slogging away in a common place with friends is more compelling than sitting behind a computer. Not for me. When it comes to work, I would rather sit behind a computer at home and talk with my friends on another computer at the same time than sit behind a computer at an office and talk with my friends there in person.

    "so it's better to do it with people you like." How does that equate to me being able to interview everyone at an office while I am being interviewed to be hired? What you are getting at is some mantra of just be happy with where you are at.

    I like all the people I work with and have know them all for 10+ years, but I would never spend time with them outside of work. The idea of conflating my private and public lives is anathema to me.
