Put in my 2 weeks today at my corporate job to go somewhere else for a shorter commute and more money. I’ve had plenty of issues at my current job and there are many more reasons for my departure, but I’ve always considered myself to have a good relationship with my colleagues and management. Well, that changed quickly!
Since putting in my 2 weeks yesterday, I have faced massive hostility from my coworkers and management. They are intensely guilting me and making me feel like I am committing a crime or act of intentional violence against them. I know I will leave a gap in my team but I am training others and even spent the weekend writing up extensive training guides and documents for work turnover to make it easier. I was super excited about the new opportunity and now just feel really shitty, tbh.
One of my coworkers (who is happy for me and actually behaving rationally) told me that this is normal and that people often take it personally?! Wtf is that about?
Anyway, not really looking for advice, just sharing a story. I wish we could see people for more than what they are and do at work.
