I have faked it and do when needed. It insults my inner economist, but he puts up with it. As far as work friends, I have had them, and some I really enjoyed. I think we would have given breaks or spent part of our week for each other. That said, I have a very hard time separating value from productivity. The socializing crowd, on the other hand, seems to see value as coming from being a member of the organization.
