Someone leaves to pick up a sick child. On said coworker's return people ask, "Hey, is your kid o.k.?"
People come in on Monday morning. They ask each other, "How was your weekend?"
People clock out. They ask each other, "Doing anything special after work today?"
People return from vacation. People ask, "How was your trip?"

A common thread in the above examples is that people ask ( they have shown interest ).
IDK how large his company is. Where I once worked there were over 300 folks in the building.The ones I bowled with,played tennis,fixed cars with, went to dinner or movies with, shared some common interests.I didn't socialize with everyone from the job on my personal time. Everyone is not interested in my after work life, nor am I  interested in every coworkers life. I am not the center of the universe.
Most of your examples need short answers, where as vacation answers are usually long and accompanied by photos.
