  • I’m the same. When we have new starters at work, besides the “y’alright” comment, that’s about it. I haven’t a clue. I used to be able to start conversations a long time ago, but since I moved up here to Lincolnshire 10 years ago, my social skills have declined massively, and I find it hard to make friends. Most of the people I do talk to at work, started with a conversation about mental health. No, real advice I’m afraid, but you’re not alone.

    How about:

    "what made you want to work here?"

    "What did you do before coming here?"

    "How are you finding it here?"

    "It sometimes takes a fresh pair of eyes to spot the areas for improvement. What would you change here if you had the chance? "
