be social

I’m a manager at an inbound call center, and today I received a few new representatives on my team. I made it a point to make small talk with each of them….I kinda feel like the only reason why I did this is because I’m paid to make these people successful…but for what’s its worth I went out of my way to talk to strangers.

I’ve noticed its a lot easier to be myself when I’m conversing with one individual vs. a group. I tend to become anxious when I’m with a group of people…I don’t know how to join the conversation, I feel like when I do start to talk nobodies interested…and then I get so nervous I end up making excuse to escape. I envy people that are “social butterflies”. I wish I could be social and be a part of a social circle like that tv show friends.
