Since dating co-workers safely is dead, office socialisation is kind of pointless.

don't dip your pen in the company ink.

and plenty of reason to socialize with coworkers even if not for dating. you can still have "watercooler chats" with coworkers remotely. "how bout those _____" still works before big group calls, for example.

For many people these conversations are irritating and exhausting

Are you just that misanthropic?

Tried it once and while it was fun and spicy, the novelty quickly wore off and the drama was ultimately not worth it. Going to work and getting some backhanded snide comment from guys who have no business at all in your relationship is no fun. You can't even tell them fuck off.
