[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe you were covid conscious. They can’t win op. [/quote]

I'm more lenient, actually. But again, I never interacted with them once we were sent them. They had no idea how I felt, so I am pretty sure their decision predates covid, and that's what hurts.

I get it. They dislike me, and they're entitled to those feelings. So how do I get past that and be part of the team again? It's uncomfortable to be the [b]only [/b]one not included.[/quote]
I’m wouldn’t assume they don’t like you but more that they don’t know you. Sounds like they were friends before covid and continued meeting up in friendship not as work colleagues. I would not read anything more into it. [/quote]

I've been there 12 years, which I guess makes this even more problematic. [/quote]

During those 12 years, did you live in the same place you worked?

Honestly, you make it sound like you, sitting in Silver Spring, are sad because your colleagues, who all live in Arlington, are going out for lunch without you and using the distance to justify it. That's not what's happening here. It's a plane ride, not half an hour on the Beltway. If you were never local, how have you maintained connections with people on your team before? Seems kind of difficult to feel like a full member of the team if everyone's local but you. [/quote]
