> Work is literally THE worst place to make human connections

I don't necessarily disagree, but I make a slightly different argument, in that, humans will make human connections, whether they like it or not, and the most typical human experience is to make stronger and stronger connections with people you see regularly. Furthermore, depending on the company, there's the desire to be a part of something bigger, there's social conditioning setting in to prove yourself among your peers, there's the desire to not appear like you're lazy.

Where I think you'll agree is that your company will 100% exploit these human aspects of you to get a better margin on the value of your labor vs the compensation they pay you.

At my last work place everyone talked about how great therapy was. Curious I decided to try it myself.

Turns out therapy was great, it made me realise that my work place was toxic and since leaving I haven’t needed a therapist again!
