If that’s your primary means of communication, still have to be able to say, “I want to talk with you about some issues at work. If you’ve got time, I’d like to meet up and talk over coffee.

I’m also super antisocial. After all, I’m here (jk, kinda). I just stopped giving a shit if I lost my job after it looked like I might need to start looking for work anyway.
The work is very formulaic. I can build relationships within a social constraint no problem. It’s unstructured relationships that are hard. I don’t have trouble reading people. I just don’t get much out of it in most circumstances. So maybe it sounds a little manipulative, but it’s very much about not putting people in a bad position and protecting fellow workers.
