Women-dominated work environments

>I couldn't hold a long conversation with any of them; not that I didn't want to talk but my conversations were about the work, if I was doing alright, was I doing the decorations correctly, was I quick enough while theirs steered more towards small talk and hobbies (and we didn't have common hobbies)
>also couldn't adapt to their extravagant pleasantries
>some started to get visibly irritated at my answers
>they started to not talk to me anymore
>they treated me like I wasn't in the room
>they became really critical of me, and I do have a number of ticks like I mutter when I'm thinking, which I did because I had idle time so I thought about my previous work
>I did manage to sort of befriend one of the girls and she told me I was weird (and I thought they were weird too)
>also said I was a snub who didn't get into the conversation
>started to get really annoyed at how unprofessional they were
>stress slowly mounted while going to "work"
>it got to the point they were shooing me away from certain parts of the store, delegating me to lone tasks to keep me away from the rest of the group
>told me to not join in some work to make things quick even though they
>shit hit the fan when it was my birthday, the owner threw me a little party and nobody even greeted me after I gave a few of them chocolates on their birthdays
>finally decide to quit and gave notice to the owner
>right about the end, I started just ignoring them too
>at the last day, bought everyone pizza just to part
>no one told me goodbye but I could see a bit of shame on their faces

Is this how it is for most women-majority work environments? Because never again.

Yes that is true. Especially if it's a fucking flower shop where they just pluck some fucking flowers while gossiping to each other.

Yeah but damn, it got fucking savage

>noticed they were actually checking me out
delusional

None of this shit makes any sense? Why would you work somewhere for free? Volunteering is a totally different arena but just showing up to some small business your friend runs and treating your work with such seriousness you can't handle idle conversation just seems nonsensical.

This shit sounds made up

Idk, maybe. Some of their questions were really prying.

I was down and I was talking to my mom who said maybe I wanted to work there and maybe meet someone.

I wouldn't say I was serious but that's sort of the way I'm used to socialize. When I worked corporate, we'd talk about guy stuff. We started our conversations over, wanna drink? and over the work we did. Talking about trivial stuff like every member of our family and long exchanges is exhausting.

You have autizm OP you know this right?

Yes, but the good kind :) . I've had decent success and friendships so far apart from the last bit.

So did you want to become friends with the girls or not? You don't have to engage in the convo, just be part of it because it seems like you wanted to be part of the the group.

I wouldn't say I was desperate to be part of the group. I treated it as a plus, great if it happened, no biggie if not. I did reach out - I'd strike a conversation and I greeted them in the morning but the conversations just didn't last long.

We just weren't at the same wavelength. The annoying thing was how it devolved from that. I just didn't expect that. I can't say I did anything wrong apart from making work mistakes, whcih I thought were tolerable.
