Come on, work being the sole source of community is the problem here. What are we even talking about?

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (9 children)

No one said “sole.” It’s about a sense of community between you and your coworkers, which is a very real and normal thing. It’s spelled out in the article very clearly:

losing that sense of workplace community had a greater impact on childless men

“Workplace community.”

I’m a dad working remote and I love the benefits but I ALSO miss the sense of community with my coworkers which I used to get from lunches together, sharing the train ride home, or just working side by side at our desks.

hmm, so having or not having kids have impact on your sence of workplace community during remote work?

Does it add up to you?

Try reformulating your question in English and I’ll see if I can answer you.

I like to think I would less judgmental about people attepting to communicate with me in the only language I know. Maybe approach like that is the reason work is the only place where people spent time with you ;)

Your comment was unintelligible, sorry. I can hear you whining now, very clearly, and trying to insult me personally. So I guess you can communicate successfully when you try.

I'm glad you understood me know, thank you. I adapted your approach to learning languages - speaking slow and laudly. It worked like a charm.
