Yeah I noticed this too. I am not naturally someone that is going to lie and flatter people when I don't really mean it. Even when I try I am clearly not doing it right since people think its fake.
I don't understand how you can expect a person to be a good worker and the life of the party. Most people are one or the other. Assuming someone is a good worker since they have lots of friends is crap.
I am sure a lot of those bullied nerds in HS would tell you a very different story. I was bullied for not drinking and getting sex when I was in school and paying attention to the teacher.
In school if you have lots of friends you are often a trouble maker so I don't think we should be applying this desperate type of behavior in the adult world. Do anything to get friends "Blow up a building, kill your mom, lite a person on fire" just so you can be popular. The real world should be about consequences.
IIN that in every job nowadays you need "networking" to get ahead?
