Getting along with co-workers, how important?
I just started working at a job where I seem to have nothing in common with anyone there on just about any level besides making money. I know everyone is there to make a living and would wish they were anywhere else, but even water-cooler chatter is difficult, strained. I wish to avoid eliciting any hostility from anyone there - most of them have been working together there for years - perhaps its just poor social skills on my part. Ijust want to fit in and continue to work and improve there.
Your thoughts, experiences, advice, or anecdotes appreciated.
