When I graduated from college I thought this would stop happening, because no more "first day of classes", right??
Wrong.
It is less often but....man it happens way too much. Ugh.
Double social energy costs if the group leader poses a "fun" get to know you question for everyone to answer that isn't based on preference (e.g., "what's your favorite cookie?). One of my supervisors would ask stuff like, "what's a fact about you that we wouldn't expect?"

Jesus fuck Jeremy it's 8:05 in the morning and I have to remember which persona each and every person on this call interacts with and then tell them something new about me that subverts the expectations I don't know they have? Are you a goddamn sadist?
Extroverts, man...
