This sounds like I was like about 10 years ago. Wrapped up in a company. I don't do "work friends" anymore.

Work friends one on one outside of work are fine but avoid the group social. Anyone part of that will drop you because your connection is the social.

Yes, this was one of the things I learned in Big Co after a few years. You end up realizing most work relationships (not all) are what I now call "proximity kindness".

Think two people walking into an elevator together.
