I've had blue collar jobs and there is indeed a strong sense of camaraderie. However, if you're not included in this camaraderie for any reason (don't like sports, certain foods, views on certain topics, quiet type that doesn't react well to jokes) it can be hell. I've never felt included in any of my workplaces. I hated watching all of my coworkers jabber for hours on end without me. I hated not being included in after-work activities. With the few work friends I've had, any rift on either end made the relationship unbearable. But now working from home, my friends are friends and my coworkers are coworkers. I never want to two to meet again.
