Title: The company I work for keeps organizing social events and expects everyone to be present. I have no interest in having lunch with a random set of co-workers or play random games on Zoom. I like to get my work done and collaborate with my team members, I don’t want these random interruptions.<p>This happened as well before COVID with quarterly events where we would do the most random stuff: play music, cook, scavenge hunt... Something completely irrelevant to what we do on a daily basis.<p>Do you see this at your company as well? How do you deal with it? I understand that we can be supportive of each other, but to me it almost comes across like people have given up on their personal lives and now need to somehow compensate for it at work.<p>I love the work that I get to do on a daily basis, but these work events drive me nuts.
