obligatory I'm a German nurse living in Germany, but the German channels on lemmy don't have as many members as this one, so I ask here.
When I work I like to do my job and then relax. To me, doing it the other way round is just stupid. I was never the kind of person that goes to work to socialize, I don't need it and I strongly resent forced socialization.
For the last 2 years I've worked within the same hospital system and it's clear to me now, nobody thinks like me: all my coworkers spend the first hour of the shift talking about their private lives, as they were looking for excuses not to work and expect anyone else to take care of patients. And because I'm the only one with this job mentality, it's always me the one who works while the rest do nothing.
This is very frustrating and I'm now applying elsewhere, but it bothers me that my new workplace can turn out to be like this.
I'm also applying for office positions (no shifts) and wonder: does this happen there as well? Ideally I'd be completely responsible for my work alone.
I feel like a student at school again, when the teacher forced me to work in a group with the lazier ones and I ended up either doing most of the job or became as lazy as them. Why work when they don't?
I don't want to work with people who slow me down.
I see you are incapable of answering a straightforward question and prefer to rant in the void to feel good.
fine it it helps you feel good but... weird.
