Does anyone else hate pretty much everyone else in your job field? I'm back in school now but in the year I was working at a full time job, basically every other engineer was a chud who absolutely refused to consider other people and were only doing engineering because they got paid a lot. I know it's good to get to know everyone you work with and build solidarity but it's basically impossible when they're all so insufferable.

How do all of you deal with it?

    Yeah good luck unionizing with that mentality. Or good luck nudging coworkers -- who you spend as much time around as anyone in your life, and who you have endless opportunities to talk to -- in a better direction. Shit, good luck advancing in your field if you're the guy who no one ever talks to.

      I wish I could talk with my co-workers. Seven months of remote work is seriously weighing on me.
