You can't call it a culture difference even if you get along well.

There's a community manager-like Mr. P and Mr. Q.
Each manages a different Community C1 and C2
Mr. R is there, and he is good friends with Mr. P and Mr. Q.
Mr. P frequently calls Mr. R in community C1
Mr. Q only rarely calls Mr. R to community C2.
「 self-inflicted alienation 」
This was a story about Mr. S and Mr. T, and Mr. T was not invited to the community C3 involving Mr. S.
At this time, Ms. S thought that she could not call Mr. T because of his behavior problems.
In this case, Mr. P and Mr. Q have different decisions on whether to call Mr. R or not.
Why is this?
Hypothesis: Mr. R is culture fit with C1, but not with C2.
Even if you are close, you can't call them if your culture is different.
Because the question is not whether Q and R get along, but whether C2 and R are a culture fit
The connection to the concept of culture fit made it possible to think of this event in the metaphor of corporate recruitment
Mr. Q sometimes calls Mr. R when there is a role where "Mr. R's behavior" fits in.
That is to say, it's "outsourcing" where you hire someone who has the ability to do the job when it needs to be done, for a short period of time.
Isn't this "job-based employment"?
In retrospect, the need for culture fit is tightly coupled with membership-based employment.
[Difference between "temporary" and "permanent
People who are always there create the culture.
