Sorry for the delay in reply, Yawatta. WP is not sending me notifications that there are comments! I totally agree with you. The word “team-building” at work is anathema to me. No, I don’t want to go to work events where I’m expected to stand around and make small talk. (“Yeah, that team last night sportsed really well!” LOL). I prefer my own company most of the time.

INTPs seem to prefer the process as opposed to the results. The ones I know like to figure out how to do things. I also read INTP is the rarest of all the Myers Briggs types 😉

I work in an office 9 to 5 with no cubicles, and by lunch time, I’m emotionally drained. I’m the only introvert against six extroverts! If I’m quiet (hello, I’m always inside my head lol) then I’m excused of being moody. If I don’t want to participate in something like Secret Santa or a department party, then I’m being anti-social. I hate when my coworkers or boss says we have to act a certain way because we’re all around each other more than our own families. I come to the office to work. Not be a “family.” I pick who I want special in my life. I refuse to be forced.

Keep smiling
Yawatta

The struggle is real, and the book collection is enormous.

I am a strong INTP. I fought through a 25 year career in the Navy and the same number of years as a government contractor where I often had to be act like an E. Retired, I have more private time.
