I get along with the nerdy types who don't really care about gossip or cliques.
I can also get along with some of the independent people too. But not always.
Depends on the job.
some places have horrible instances of politics and gossip. I usually don't care about that sort of stuff and would rather talk about general things, music, movies, travel, maybe ask them a question, but the whole jokey/group thing eludes me due to my lack of group social skills growing up.
I usually don't get on with overly confident people either who don't have time for people that don't meet their expectations of people.
It depends on the situation.
My problem is that I find some work environments intimidating and scary which means I can never be comfortable enough to be quick witted etc. So I just do the work and i'm mild mannered, but I can't be jokey, because I fear that I might accidentally say something wrong or use sarcasm the wrong way.
Funny thing is that at my last job, the two louder people liked me the most, because I put up with them and was nice where as some people ignored them. But we weren't gossipy. Just tried to be funny amongst ourselves.
