This is probably good advice but if people are spending more and more of their time at work and work starts becoming half of their life, with outings with coworkers, bosses being your friend and not just your boss, then where can you meet people exactly?

You can't honestly demand both that people be disconnected from their coworkers and that they make work be 90% of their life. One part has to give (preferably the latter part).
