Hi K ,
social side sucking ? hmm i recon you'd be good teaching people non alcoholic chocolate and cooking
get everyone to put labels on their jumpers ..
I think you'd find it fun to plan classes for people who want to entertain and present food like you do .. maybe do a whole spectacular menu in as many weeks classes …
Maybe you'd find some happiness in a shared activity like that ? the job is quite techy and geeky and therefore quite isolating ..
Just a thought ,
