Work "friends"
I (40f) have never been great at friendships. It is not surprise to me that as an adult my only real "friend" is my spouse. BUT the last 4 years I spent in a property management position with 3 other ladies that were all hired within the same month as me and we had gotten pretty close over our time together. We would have girls nights out and do the whole birthday and Xmas gift exchanges and all that jazz! Fast forward, I get promoted to a position that took me out to multiple locations instead of the 1 office that I started in and I end up being put in a training position for new hires and I spend nearly 6 months with a lady who I truly thought was my friend as well.
Fast forward even more- I just was let go from the company and not a single one of them contacted me to ask me how I am, or what happened or to offer to help (cuz I have to move too since my housing was tied to my job). I think that the one I spent 6 months training may have even known about me getting let go before I did. It's just a feeling though.
Should I not be upset that these ladies I thought were my friends, could truly care less?
If you knew someone you considered your friend was being fired, would you warn them? Maybe I just expect too much out of people and so they just always let me down.
