I was the only one not invited to a work farewell
Not too long ago, we had 5 people leave the team due to lay offs. Work offered to throw them a farewell lunch but they declined, and instead opted to organise their own.
Today I wake up and see everyone has posted on instagram about it, except me. I was the only one not there/invited.
While it’s obviously fine and they can choose who to invite, it still sucks, especially as it was 5 people who collectively decided they didn’t want me there. I thought I got along well with all of them, but obviously they felt differently.
My only thoughts are that I waited a few weeks to message them after the lay offs. But to be very honest I waited because I had no idea what to say as it was so awful, but in a way I felt guilty because I had kept my job. I can also be quite a loud chatty person, but maybe they find this annoying.
Is there anything I should change when I go to work next week? I still really enjoy all the people I work with, but should I just stay a little more quiet for a while? Should I ask about how it was, not coming from a passive aggressive side but asking how they are all doing?
