Anyone else encountered this problem? I wanna kms every day, I feel like I don't belong here, I feel like Forrest Gump dropped into an episode of Suits.
I had something similar when i had a job. It was an engineering company and i was surrounded by what user would call "normies" - adult, serious middle-class men with families, kids and real hobbies (like hunting, fishing or sports). I was (and still am) a typical beta incel foreveralone, raised in a poor single-parent family, who doesn't have a social life, avoids interactions and whose main hobby is playing computer games. While at work I constantly had an "imposter syndrome" and was trying to hide my true identity from my colleagues, which didn't end well.

Did Chads round you up in the toilet and beat the living fuck out of you while getting Tinder match notifications?

user stop feeling out of place and weird. All these people you are dealing with, do you think they are normal? Trust me they are not. They are all, piece by piece, weird crazy individuals who have been through all kinds of weird shit, thinking the most ridiculous things. So stop thinking you are so god dam special or different, you are not. Just start to try enjoying yourself and feel good about the fact that you are earning enough money to make a living and invest into the future. (and ofcourse have a little spare left for some fun). You should be happy with those circumstances, stop asking for more, just go for it.

Been there done that.
I'm 10 years in and I still feel different. Most of my co-workers come from stable families in good neighborhoods. My youth was the total opposite.
They don't accept me because I wasn't born rich. My poor friends and family ignored me since I maded it.
>like Forrest Gump dropped into an episode of Suits This is an excellent analogy that describes the situations I find myself in. Sometimes I find myself in these meetings with high-level executives. I have NO idea what the fuck's going on, and I'm sitting there wondering how the fuck did I end up in this meeting and hoping that nobody asks me to say something.
No, i just had a burnout, then a conflict with one of the superiors and finally did quit my job. Which kind of fucked me up even more. Been officially unemployed for many years since then, now I can't even imagine to get back to a similar job, because it's going to be even worse, since i'll have to start from scratch in a completely new environment with the same issues.
I am working in a startup. All the time ppl in here are all: networking, partner up, do this do that. And Im like, dudes, we dont even know if this shut works, I cant be the only one seeing all the flaws, what about you? Sell sell sell. One of these days Im gonna snap. If Im working at a scam company, Id rather run my own scam. Making someone else's scam work is a whole new level of cuckoldry. What if Im working in the next Theranos?

Don't laugh too hard - How many of you even know the sound Tinder makes when you get a match?

>Hur dur how do I be social. Learn to adapt to your surroundings and stop being some small town aspie hick or move back home but stop being a bitch.

Welcome to your prime earning years. Save and invest for retirement so you don't have to fight to keep your position 20 years from now.
Jordan Ramirez
get it the sound all the time, but they are all bots.
Parker Taylor
I legit dont know

I wouldn't mind waging actually. It's the necessity to socialize and fit in that is the hardest part. Hence the imposter syndrome. Also, why you think that adult people behave like hs kids? You worked at a place like that?
never used tinder because it's for degenerates only

>feel totally out of my depth going to lunch in expensive restaraunts
