I had a hard time with this when I was in software, because I didn&#x27;t enjoy video games or sci-fi or a lot of the things my coworkers did. I have nothing against those things, but I feel like in the industry it&#x27;s pretty common to adopt these things into the work culture instead of trying to keep the workplace more neutral.<p>I would liken it to working at an office where everyone is really into sports. I&#x27;ll watch the occasional college football game, but I&#x27;d be pretty alienated working at an office with sports stuff hanging on the walls where people expected you to watch the game every weekend in order to fit in.
