[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you were (very) remote before the pandemic.  Expecting people who all live local to include you when you commuted by *plane* is not realistic.  I completely understand how hurt you must feel - being excluded is a lousy feeling.  It sucks.

For your sake, though, you need to be aware of what’s situational (you live a plane ride away) and what you may be contributing to this dynamic (taking personally what isn’t).

Good luck with job applications - I hope you can get in person soon.  I really miss my colleagues, too, but our agency is slow-walking us all back.[/quote]

Also, it's not clear whether you've been a plane ride away all along, or just during the pandemic.  If the former, they probably don't know you as well because you're not around.  If the latter, they may have known that you went remote during the pandemic and so didn't think you'd be available.  If you're quiet and don't speak up and don't initiate social plans then they don't feel that close to you.  And if you're remote, that's exacerbated.  [/quote]
