I started a new internship and it’s been my second day, we basically sit in conferences and talks and kinda kinda just listen for information. It’s a small task but a good place so I kinda have to keep going with it.
I do have social anxiety and often that kinda just results in my not liking people from my own perceptions without really giving them a chance, but most of these people are just so irritating, with no sort of etiquette of any sort or professional behaviour. Or attire, my goodness I feel like people just show up in the clothes they were wearing to bed. On top which our instructors are kinda good looking guys so the girls are going crazy over them, laughing at every freaking thing they say.
Idk this just bothers me for some reason, maybe my expectations of human behaviour are high? I just need help maintaining myself so I can continue for the next month or so.

Look at how your colleagues act, they seem to enjoy themselves thanks to the good working conditions of the place you are right now. It’s only been two days, maybe you could try to live your experience and not focus on these people as much as you do. People would love to have a chill internship like this one
I sometimes get annoyed when people constantly and obviously flirt with someone else over and over so I hear you.
I feel like I’m being irrational in feeling that way but I can’t help it.
Ok the only thing that’s popping into my head is:
Who do you dislike the least?
Maybe focus on chatting to them?
A couple of people who bug you less than the others?
