They do need human interaction… but let them get it outside of work! I know a few people at work who 50+ and single and living alone. They enjoy coming into the office. They openly say they need the social interaction.

How terrible that they’re not getting their social needs met outside of work. People at work come and go. Idk why you’d want your social network built around a group of people you will be in contact with for 2-4 years.
