>spent christmas eve with immediate and extended family>every single conversation someone started with me was career/job-relatedis this normal? i feel like my family sees me as a job more than a person
yeah it is but oh well you have the chance to change the conversation
>>83477608jobs and careers are sometimes a bountiful avenue to acquire friends and significant others. I have friends from my job and my current gf was a former coworker (it's a terrible relationship but still, got sex from talking to women at work.)
>>83477608did you try changing the subject?
>>83477608Yes it is for the vast majority of adults. In my family, any get-together is pretty much a work party, but fewer limits on what is acceptable to pry about since there is no HR to squeal to.
