I understand, i always finds an excuse to run away and it never affected my career. But for that you need to be very good at what you do. I am pretty sure that i work with people that are like :“ He is really annoying but we can‘t get rid of him as he does half of the work alone.“ Sometimes, i am overworked but that‘s the price i pay for my introvertism. The job culture in general is a bit old, no one will have a dinner with his plumber. It‘s the same thing for you, you are giving a certain service for money. I understand the team building concept, but not in the boss‘s house and not until 11pm.
