I didn't mean to be a debbie downer... in my case I've been lucky that I have found a small handful of people where I work with whom I get along very well.. but I didn't choose to work here because of that, I didn't have much of a choice (where I wanted to work unfortunately didn't get any funding for full-timers). A job was a job for me. But if I'd had a choice back then.. I would drive a little further to be where I was before since I knew and liked just about everyone I worked with.
That being said... in spite of not being buddy buddy with a lot of people here, I am in a position of higher responsibility and higher visibility. My network within this (relatively) small community of full-time National Guard has expanded, and being that I knew no one here before, I think in having to prove myself I have earned more respect than just being grandfathered in.
