I'm about to celebrate one year at work. And while my performance has been okay on paper, I'm relatively shy around workmates during lunch or meetings, and office events. The pandemic really affected my social skills. I work with a set of colleagues virtually most of the time but they came to the main office for an event, I didn't know how to interact with them and do small talk. I said a few hi's and smiled a bit - that's it. I also didn't join the after party cause it's making me anxious and I don't know how to talk to them. Now I feel like they think I'm snobbish. What's your advise for me. I want to improve. Pre-pandemic I can handle and initiate conversations but now it's making me anxious. TIA.
