Yes; the fact that we spend so much time at work is what makes it important to be at least on good terms with your colleagues, even if you aren't friends.

Thank you.

And I hope you have received your share by now! I sent it days ago!

You're right about female friendships and their importance. And yes, when you do make friends at work, it's an unexpected blessing.

My full time job is hard to explain, but the short answer I give is it's scientific writing.

►Macie

Thank you.

►Justdoyin

It is really nice! But I have to make sure I don't get caught up in socializing at work and focus sometimes. I guess that would be the only disadvantage.

►Rose

Thank you for your comments. It's true talk.

►shonavixen

I know what you mean. It's nice to have some diversity in your friendships. I know some people whose colleagues become their only friends. That would be strange to me.

►disguised feelings

I'm glad you have friends you're thankful for. And yup, shona has a point, but it depends on the relationship you have with your colleague, for sure.

►blogoratti

I'm glad! Have a good week.

►Amina

Ah, I have a very different work environment from what you describe. I can completely understand how it would be hard to develop friendships in some work environments due to competition.

lol at being added on facebook!

►Afrobabe

I'll drink to that!

►Tigeress

Thank you. I try to focus on the good but I do spend many moments whining so I'm very much a work in progress.

►bob-ij

With your personality, I suspect you will have friends everywhere you go! :)

►funms-the rebirth

Thank you for thanking God for me!

►Writefreak

lol I look forward to the nagging :)

OMG! I know what you mean. My co-workers have become my best friends. Work goes by in a flash and everyone is on the same page. I hope when I enter the work place after school it will be just as awesome.Kudos to all those who show love to their co-workers!

It nice to have postive friends/energy around you. And it only takes maturity in God to focus on the good things in one's life rather than always complain about the struggles.

Have a lovely weekend. And as usual- i've enjoyed ur post.

how sweet!

I don't have much luck with my colleagues as competition is no joke and i don't want them to know my business so that they can use it against me.

plus i see their asses (lol..sorry for the language) everyday, in my classes, in department functions and some even added me on facebook….aargh

awww this is so sweet! I like my colleagues but outside of working events I don't hang out with them..its enough seeing them for 8 sometimes 10/11 hours that I see them, even though they are cool people!
