Would you rather the opposite?
The "irreverent" attitude is a hallmark of (US) west-coast (dare I say, Silicon Valley) post-hippie culture, which rose in reaction to the more straight-laced East Coast work culture.
The pendulum swings.

- jim-jim-jim 4y agoI prefer straight-laced. Please afford me distance and dignity. I have my own friends. Let me make money then log off.
- nicbou 4y agoAgreed. I actually liked my colleagues and the occasional company social functions, but only because they were optional. In German, *Dienst ist Dienst, Schnaps ist Schnaps". Work is work, play is play. I get uncomfortable when the line gets blurred because it's rarely in favour of play.
