Unfiltered Story #296062
One day, I ate at work with coworkers, including [coworker 1] who generally prefers to eat alone, but wanted to try eating with friends today. We just had a laugh
Coworker 1: Thank you,actually it feels good to eat with friends ocassionnally.
Coworker 2 : Friends ?
Coworker 1: Yes, is there a problem?
Coworker 2: (annoyed) But we’re at work, here personally, I only have coworkers, you’ll never be friends.
We’re surprised, but we’ll let it go…
a few days later, [coworker 1] organised a raclette evening.
Coworker 1 : so, there will be you, [coworker 3], [coworker 4] …
Coworker 2: But do you see each other outside?.
Coworker 1: Yes…
Coworker 1: but how do you manage to be so close? you’re not the same with me.
Me: because we consider each other as friends.
(Reminder to coworkers : you don’t consider us as friends, no problem, but don’t be surprised if we are less close to you than coworkers who are also friends).
