Why you should never make friends at work?
I know that it is a very bad idea to make friends at work because its a distraction, it can hurt your career’s progress, and you’ll be expected to take the fall with your coworker if they screw up. How would you explain to an individual why making friends or dating people at work is a very bad idea?

I have no friends in my work?
I have recently begun working and i have been working there for about 3 months, although im only in on saturdays, However the thing that is troubling me is that im very shy and everyone who works there is very loud mouth, open, outgoing and so i havent been able to make friends at my work. There are only a handful of us that work there, but they are all older than me, im the youngest and i dont feel like i can be myself there. I try start conversations but i never know what to say, and so they usually just talk to each other and laugh about stuff and so im left quiet myself. I dont mind not talking to any of them, but its just causeit means if there was to be work night outs (when im older enough to go) i probably wouldnt be able to go because i would be awkward and bored all night. I am trying to over come my low self esteem because im really shy at work which holds me back from helping out, but i still havent been able to make friends. They all have each others phone numbers and stuff although i dont think any of them go out anywhere outside of work, but still i feel like they dont want me there, because most people dont like shy awkward people What should i do? I dont wanna quit or anything because the job is okay and the money is good. x

So I'm 19, and I only had one job before, but it was at home so I never met ppl. I'm looking for jobs now, but I just want to know like, ifni work at somewhere like Target, do your co workers become good friends with you? In shows like The Office or Chuck its like everyone in the work place are all close. Is that the same case or?
How do I make friends as an adult?
You have my condolences, my mother passed a little over a year ago. Anyway, what are your hobbies? Try going to places you like, for example: if you like yoga go to a yoga class. If you don't like yoga go somewhere else like an art gallery or museum, but wherever you meet people be yourself if your awkward your friends will learn to get over it. If you try to be someone else just to mold to there social preference your friendship will be false and won't last very long. You won't have every thing in common with your friend and it would be weird if you did, so just go to a public place and mingle with people, act how you normally do and you will generally. Set people you like.
How can I make friends at new job?
I disagree with Margaret. If you are asking this is because you have a social personality and you need that "connection" with co-workers and you care. You spend more time at work than home, and it is true, you are there to work but...isn't it better to work in a friendly environment? My humble advice is... try and take the initiative. Smile and say Hi! when you arrive at work, ask them how was their weekend, approach them at the kitchen and tell them their food smells great, ask for their families, say "good bye" when you leave. Don't wait for them. Try to make it personal. And of course, at establishing that connection, you need to share something about you. It may sound like you are making a "small talk" but that will tell them you are willing to connect and they will be more receptive and will pay attention to you. You will see things changing. People in general are nice and want to be nice. Hope this helps.
