Sense of belonging
While listening to the ladies I realised that this looking for friendship on the work floor, experiencing a sense of belonging is universal. Everybody needs a certain degree of belonging, because it makes worklife more enjoyable. I was wondering whether people nowadays feel like they have to make friends more than ever, because the opposite is not something they like to consider. It makes them feel alone and not appreciated on both a personal and professional level. But I myself like to draw a line between professional and personal friendship. I do appreciate friendliness and openness on a professional level, but I have limits. I need a distinction, because quite frankly my worklife is not my life. My life outside work is what I value the most and that is what I consider My Life. Work is just..Work. But, having said that, I do understand that it depends on the length of time you spend on a job. If you see people day in, day out, you will look for common grounds and maybe a sense of familiarity.
