Exactly as title sounds. Wtf. You can read my prior post. I started a new job two months ago and felt very excluded by the team despite my best efforts to join in.
Well, I resigned because of the isolation and now they’re all making friendship bracelets throughout the team, and an off-handed comment was made about how I’m not getting one???
Ouch, but also wow can’t wait to blow this joint. Haven’t felt this level of materialistic rejection since the sandbox in kindergarten lmao.
Edit Update: I should probably add on that I didn’t actually expect to get a friendship bracelet since I’m leaving nor do I want one; it was just the final straw in being excluded from the small team, who’d all known each other for years, growing up in the same small town. It’s more or less how smug they were, pointedly showing off the bracelets in front of me, like that scene in Mean Girls where Gretchen doesn’t get a candy cane lol. I promise I’m not actually mad about the physical bracelet itself!
