Hi ladies,
Just wanted to highlight the fact that I have my own family who threw me a really nice big baby shower so this isn't about the gifts.
But I guess I feel a little bit sad/disappointed that at my workplace, its my last day tomorrow and my team (we're a group of about 12 people in our immediate team) didn't bother to do anything special for my departure.
This is sooo petty and at the end of the day, work is work and my coworkers are my coworkers right? However, we work in the gov so I always see tons of emails circulating about other people in other team throwing their coworker a surprise work baby shower or at least circulate a nice card. SOMETHING. And then in turn, I see that person fwding the baby's picture at work after the birth or bringing the baby in for a visit.
As for myself, we're not a close team like that but there has been many cards for people's bdays or retirement.
Once again, I know it sounds really selfish. Its not about receiving gifts or anything from people. But its my last day tomorrow and some people already left for xmas vacation and some didn't even say goodluck, bye nothing. I'm just sitting at my desk looking at the clock excited to leave but sad that no one at work actually cares.
Someone slap me out of it!
