Would it be correct to assume that the majority of your time socializing is at work?

I'm at a remote-only company now, and have been so for seven years. I've found the key is that I have certain unconditional social activities I do after work. Without them I tend to go a bit squirrely and cranky. At work we also make a point to spend the first 5-10 minutes of longer meetings just hanging out, and get together in person at least twice a year.

We do the same. It's valuable. And we share some "useless stuff" in the chat occasionally
