You were hired, not adopted.
The company is not your family.
The office is not your home.
And your boss is not your friend.
You owe nothing there beyond what you are being paid for.

First line is hilarious.

You were hired, not adopted? Is that a real mentality that people get trapped in?

@SidTheITGuy yup... It's particularly an American thing. Some big corps try to keep teams super bonded, makes people less likely to leave... I've seen it once at a FANG, and it was also the most toxic, unprofessional team I've ever worked on...

@atheist which one?

but how do I get them to stop being creepy to me tho

Hey i’m on a 3 year streak and about to loose my 6th adoption family.
