> people you just happen to be around and interact with through the normal course of life

My experience in the military supports this argument. I have a few life long friends through this experience. Some of which I disliked initially.

Although, I do agree with the spirit of GP 's argument. You don't have to be in the office to be social and you get so much of your time back it's hard to justify the time cost if the value proposition is small talk.



Strong friendships are forged through shared adversity. Military probably ticks that box.
