    Chiming to say I am also a millennial that doesn’t break down over phone calls, shaking hands, and talking to strangers, even when the socialization is important to my livelihood

      I don’t break down while interacting, but I certainly break down when I get home. Yay masking.

        That sucks. I pretty much have the opposite issue. I don’t feel anxiety, don’t really understand it. Just know some of the people i know get anxiety attacks that are bad to the point they mimic heart attacks. Fucked up shit.

        I’m pretty good at the whole interacting thing when it’s one on one, but put me in a room with more than one person and I freeze up, completely fall apart.

      My favorite part is when the person I talk to or meet in person pretends their more important and I match their bravado. Alot of employees settle the fuck down. And the C level employees seem to meet my maturity instead of placate.

      If anyone reads this I suggest you try. Their just people. Sometimes they have a Senior position becauS their older…

      Because it’s not really a generational deficiency. It’s mostly a problem for the chronically online.
