What comes to mind is how few and far between reasonable minds are these days. A lot of people I come across have an agenda or strange ideas about how to handle things. My tolerance for dealing with people is at an all time low with various situations I've had to put up with recently - I don't understand how some people rationalize bullying, harassment, and hate. I can't imagine living like that.

I think the places you hang out and the age of the people make a big difference.

But I've also learnt that if people are not people I want to be around (where I can) I just give them a miss. Obviously in the work setting it's a bit different. You have to mix with people you would rather not. I just try and avoid them as much as possible. WFH 4 days a week helps a lot.

It's really exhausting, isn't it? I don't have the energy to filter out the good from the bad anymore, so I just keep to myself. It's lonely sometimes but overall better for my sanity.

I must say it sounds like a luxury to work from home 4 days a week. As for the people in general, usually it is just online friend groups that eventually pose issues from time to time. When that happens I usually withdraw myself and find other places to be.
