Mandatory friends?
So the question is "Do you have to be friends with you co-workers?", and my answer is no you do not have to be friends with your co-workers. There's always that one person you just can't stand in your class and normally you ignore them and act like they don't exist, well it doesn't really work like that in a workplace. I'm not saying you have to be all buddy buddy with them I'm just saying you can't act like there invisible. Just simply talk to them when you have to. What I would do is only talk to them if I have a question or if they need to talk to me about something about work. Try to be as professionally as you can during work and after you can act like they're invisible like you would in school. If it doesn't have to do with work then you don't have to talk to them. All you have to do is if they try to talk to you about something that doesn't involve your job then politely tell them, "With all due respect if it's not about work then Please keep it to yourself.".
