Do you talk to the coworkers you don’t like?

I don’t go out of my way to, but still normal and professional in passing.

Seems like ignoring coworkers would cause work drama, no?

About work things? Sure.
About personal life? No - and that applies to everybody.

I don’t have coworkers. I have employees. Congrats on being an individual contributor in your 50s

If work related, yes. I’m there to do my job. Otherwise, no.

I don't dislike any of my coworkers at this job, but at my last job, I was just professional with those coworkers, nothing more.

At my current job, the bigger issue is avoiding the seemingly ever-present political discussions in the office. I don't always even disagree with what's being said, I just don't want to engage about it. It's a lot of "Yeah, uh huh, I agree" regardless of what's being said.

It's easier that way than to try to get into debates or discussions where, even if you agree on a topic, you might be totally at odds with another political topic that could come up.

Well I don't know that ignoring them would be my best course of action seeing as it is my job. So I am going to assume you mean about personal things, and no, this is why I like working remote no stupid chit-chat.

Sugar wouldn't melt in my mouth... I can be a faker to keep the peace.. Although one of the most hated women worked in my office... A co-worker saw her car broken with her sitting inside and he kept driving... When he told me I high fived him...

I don’t have any coworkers. I talk to my dogs and mainly work at home.
