How do i deal with resturant industry people?

I've worked at a couple restuarants and i just dont operate like most of the people ive met. Im really polite to everyone, but its hard to act like 'best friends' so fast.. I usually keep to my self and say hello and goodbye to everyone, and i always help people out if i have time..

But I sort of get made out to be a scapegoat, just because i just dont make allies ('best friends') super fast, because i cant stand the fakeness of it..

I feel like i get backstabbed often, because of the fact that i dont want to join the negativity club.

I just try to be nice and keep a distance.. how can i avoid gossip with out becoming one of them?

(i notice since they dont have anything to talk about, resturant people tend to bond through complaining and gossip)

I want to keep a friendly professional space between me and my coworkers without feeling like.. 'im with them or against them'

Unfortunately, that type of behavior is prevalent in almost any job setting.

People tend to create cliques and cultivate work buddies in order to gain a perceived upper hand.

I, personally, think that you are taking the right path. Keep your personal integrity intact, but, also, choose to accept a few scratches which may result from that stance.
