How to cope with people at work who I have nothing in common with?

I'm branded as quiet but really it's because a lot of my colleagues are much older and a lot of them smoke outside at lunch tines. I sense that my lifestyle and hobbies are very different and it makes it difficult to converse. a lot of them had kids quite young and didn't hi to college either

just do your thing… as long as you get along with them enough so you guys can be professional, then that’s literally all that matters in a work place… but if this is a long term job then I understand how frustrating it’d be to work with people you do not necessarily enjoy…

So what? Whenever you chat with, just chat with them.

Accept the fact that this can happen.
