I hate that these are the people I spend most my time with. I like my coworkers just fine, I've grabbed a beer with a few. Made unexpected friends. I just hate that I'm forced to spend most my time with a bunch of people whose collective mission is to make money for someone else, and that soneone else is the person who gets to spend a majority of their time with whoever they dam well please.

I ALSO hate it.

So do those other people.

This is why this HR professional doesn't want you guys getting too chummy. It's in his best interest that you don't discuss that.
