The workplace is busy and bustling, full of people coming to and from meetings, photocopiers, and each other's cubicles. However, despite the high potential for social interaction, many people still feel lonely at their place of employment. They, like most other people, sit down with their coffee or tea in the corner and work diligently, nodding to familiar faces, but these actions do not contribute to making positive connections and building human relationships. This type of unwanted solitude can be difficult to discover, as displaying emotions at work is not the social norm in society. People are afraid of appearing weak, and therefore cloak themselves in order to avoid judgment.
