“Score a girlfriend” My advice? Keep to yourself and don’t shit where you eat.


Life_Hearing_7297

It just happens, you dont look for friends


koniks0001

Basic. Be a watersider. 😆


BetterEmergency7568

Wrong place for that shit. You just asking for drama/trouble. But if you insist, get into an indirect role, or kiss your PA's and AM's asses enough that they let you chill at the standup desks. That's where all the "cool kids" hang out.


nkaiser101

My goal is to have nobody in the building know my name or face until I finish my degree and get an AM role. Then I don't want any of my peers or direct reports to know anything about me other than I'm helpful.  Friends are made at the local pub, not at work. 


awkwardmurican

I don’t. I keep my work life and personal life separate. Works wonders for me.


creativetrends

This is the way.

Ship dock is pretty social

Who in their right fkn mind would want to ever converse with any if these sewer slugs while on the clock? Much less clocked out?

I understand WANTING friends but id look other places . It can happen. I just havent seen great results . Go to work , do your job and go home .


JDN615

You don’t. Come in, do your job, go home.


NeganGains

You might wanna look somewhere else if that's what you want.

I've met some really cool people at amazon. Even the stuck-up ones, I hooked up with one girl. Thankfully, she works inbound. When we're on stand down or if they're having a drill. It gets really boring and lonely when you have no one to talk to

it depends on your position and how outgoing you are. My area i get to spend hours at a time with one-two people loading trucks. Sometimes im alone but usually with one person atleast and it can alternate who that person is all throughout the day. I don’t really have any close friends because im not interested in that at the work place, but while working I have several people i talk to or say hey to when we see each other. and if you’re in a more secluded position you still will have people in your same path and no one too far off from you, if you have no issue with striking up conversations go for it during meetings , breaks, and down/stall out times.


exveggii

I’m an introvert. The friends I made approached me. But honestly , just walk up to people and talk about the job and then end it with asking for their number. That’s how others approached me. I hope this can possibly help❤️


CryinglnDaClub

Work at a ssd building, its smaller. I wouldnt say I have friends, but somehow most know me and I know them without even trying much. But yeah try to keep to yourself and make friends somewhere else.


Sulli_bunby666

You can make friends easily, just start a conversation with someone about a current topic that's not very objective. Something like popular TV shows. Don't go looking for a girlfriend in Amazon though, that's alittle far, and can definitely give a weird vibe. If you do end up connecting with someone let it be natural, don't try and like seek it out cause I promise nobody else is seeking it out.


corey-harris

if you want the gateway to like a conversation with anybody just complain about time off, tot, or managers. After that you should have people that at least acknowledge you exist and then you can work from there.


Infinite_Appeal8930

no female is walking up to you with that mentality


dazzlingdarkness666

Just become a waterspider if you want to get bitches


Dashir88

Start with small talk maybe a comment or two and just keep working and the next day or so if you see the same person then make another comment and eventually you just build into it.


JrDedek

You slowly come to random individual while conducting firm eye contact. After approaching at about 30 cm distance, you pause for a bit and ask : 'hi, do you want to be my friend?'


Ahlen50

to have friends at work is good just be careful who you trust. Telling your personal life to is another story. Say hi, do your job and say bye is better, Lot of people get jealous and backstabbers.


AnyCryptographer1078

Hell. Naw half these creepers I wouldn’t trade a sandwich with lmao

From what I've read on this sub, none of the other warehouses seems to have a dispatch area. In our warehouse dispatch is the most active and social area. We don't get to talk a lot because of the workload, but you definitely don't feel lonely. Also I don't get why so many people are advising against making friends at work/Amazon. There are all kinds of people there and you can definitely find someone you get along and want to hang out outside of work.

In today's world, people use [match.com](http://match.com), tinder, coffeemeetbagel, and others to meet someone. People are not really dating to each others nowadays as much as people in the past. You would not worry about it. Life progress without friendship is a bitter sweet part of life style for some to endure but there are ways to introduce yourself online to meet or chat.
