Nope clicks didn’t end in high school. If anything, they grew.
I’ve worked for nearly 30 years in different environments and spaces. One thing I’ve seen in common are the work groups and clicks.
These folks hang together outside of work and have fun wherever. Often they aren’t receptive to change. If one gets upset, everyone is upset.
The key is to have a work culture where there is fun, respect, and productivity. Remember there is a job to be completed. Job satisfaction is easier to obtain than you think. There’s nothing forcing you from staying nor contributing if you don’t want you. There is a place for everyone and you just have to get to your place.
You should always be careful if you’re in a work click. You need to stand on your ground, know your worth and do what’s expected of you.
