Jacob had always been a bit of a loner, preferring the company of books and artwork to social gatherings. His disinterest in making small talk or going out for drinks with coworkers slowly led to tension and resentment from his colleagues, but Jacob couldn't muster up the energy to care. As the years passed, his social relations only worsened. He declined invitations to parties and birthdays, offered minimal responses in group chats, and didn't bother to show up for team building exercises. Jacob's coworkers saw him as cold and unapproachable, but he couldn't find it in himself to care about their opinions. Instead, he channeled all of his energy into his work as a graphic designer, pouring his heart into every project that came his way. His solitary nature allowed him to focus deeply on his projects, pushing himself to innovate and create new designs that caught the eye of his supervisors. Soon enough, his work began to speak for itself. His supervisors praised his quality of work and his ability to deliver even under tight deadlines. Jacob's art was featured in high-profile projects and exhibitions, earning him widespread recognition in the design community. While his coworkers struggled to deliver on their projects, Jacob quietly completed his work without complaint, always striving to deliver his best. His success afforded him a sense of satisfaction and pride that he had never felt before, leaving him feeling invincible. Despite his lack of interest in maintaining social relations with his colleagues, Jacob never regretted his choices. He had managed to accomplish something major in his field without ever compromising his values or changing who he was. Jacob may not have been a scientist, but he proved that a quiet, introverted personality can still lead to incredible success.
