Comment on Socially inept, introverted employees. How do you survive the workplace? Because I’m in dire need of some serious advice.

Hey so this is a YouTube video that is like 4 hours long but I am seeing a direct similarity here. I’m no doctor so, watch for yourself and see if it resonates.

Dr K is a monk turned psychiatrist who created a platform for helping get gamers mental health treatment. This is an interview with a streamer named Jason Thor Hall. He’s in the middle of a downward spiral during this interview and still to this day.

The tl;dw is that your communication style is (probably), to plenty, an oasis. So many people cannot stand the inane nonsense speak at work. However, you’re rigid in maintaining that oasis. And for those for whom it’s not an oasis, this rigidity is seen as standoffish. Sometimes to the point where people will assume it’s because you think they’re stupid, and will drive them to seek the gap in the ‘armor’ of your communication style.

I think this will resonate with many people who feel the way you feel. Myself included.
