Ive never had this issue before. I can be social. But I work at a brokerage firm and its a bit difficult.

One, Im the only person not white. Which is something Im not used to. And tbh, Im experiencing micro aggressions blatantly that I never had to deal with before. Nobody is even diverse white. Just like, Iowa white.

Everyone either is a golfer or talks about sports in general. Neither of which Im particularly interested in. One guy said he was an outdoors type and I got happy. But he really just meant hunting. And he keeps trying to show the deer and shit he kills which I dont care for.

Nobody seems to watch anime or the movies I like to watch. We play different games and conversations kinda fizzle.

The younger guys are like frat dudes. So beer and women is their only vocabulary.

Even clients arent really on my wavelength.

Its very bizarre how like. I just dont have friends at work. Like, I can totally see how people on CE get upset about politics irl. I guess Ive never been around people who actually put their political views on easy display but its uncomfortable tbh.

I really dont want this to affect performance, but Im getting to the point of not enjoying going to work. Which sucks. Kinda venting but also unsure what to do.
