By social life we will define it as how much you have face to face interactions with others, do you get invited to things? Do you invite others over? Do you go to events?

the opposite would be hardly any social interaction with others at all. You are pretty much alone most of the time whether it’s deliberate or not.

I won’t say if you don’t have much social life it’s automatically a bad thing but its also valid to say that it’s healthier to have good solid social interactions with people than not having any at all. Thats what I believe anyways.

I have been fired from 13 out of 25 jobs I have held.

When I was 16, I was a lifeguard at a fitness center. This is probably my first non-seasonal job. The location had both indoor and outdoor pools. I took my job very seriously. I was a very strict rule enforcer. As a lifeguard, my job description entailed enforcing rules. I confronted and even scolded managers on duty for failing to keep their two-way radios on them, as there were many times I was left alone at the indoor pool responsible for the safety of patrons. One day, there was a tornado warning, and I cleared the indoor pool of swimmers. The manager on duty came back to question me as to why I closed the pool and tried to get me to reopen it, and I outright refused. With the thin roof that is meant to open, it was a clear danger to everyone inside the pool when the shards and debris come collapsing down.

One day, I was called into the office by my actual pool manager. I was told I received too many complaints and if I received one more, I was to be fired. I felt this was a forceful resignation and I left. In response, I was placed on a blacklist for life to not be rehired by the entire hospital/health system.

This is an example of the bullshit I had to deal with. Workplace politics, pissing certain coworkers off, etc...
