I work remotely in a rural ranching area. Since almost day one we've been fully integrated. The key is our kids. We all do the same sports and kids activities together. We even go to branding parties and help out a lot. It was a real commitment moving down here we didn't just decide to live in an area, we joined a community. I could see how things would be very different if we didn't do that.
- bombcar 3y agoThis is it; if the ONLY interactions you have with others are negative, they will view you negatively. So if you hide in your house all day and only emerge to complain about the neighbor's dog or something, you're going to be disliked. All you have to do to counteract much of that is just say hi now and then, talk a little bit. Kids help tremendously here, because they have absolutely zero filters and feel it's entirely appropriate to run up to random strangers and yell "I POOPED".
