BTW, my "anti-social" ways were not all day long. I just didn't want to spend 6 hours BS'ing. I chose my social time wisely and didn't offense anyone when I zoned out in work. My drafters loved me because I didn't treat them like crap and I gave them good instructions. Their coordinators loved me because I didn't ask them for the impossible and I was willing to work when they worked and when I asked them to stay after hours, I was they with them and brought treats. I still socialize with my former drafting coordinators and I have no doubt if I wanted back in, I'd have an office waiting. You can horse around at the office and talk projects, but when you let it be known that there are times you have to get work done and you do this by zoning out with your ipod/iphone, co-workers soon learn to respect this, esp. in todays cube farms.
