Office Transition has affected prior work relationships Anonymous 10/18/06
    Hi,

    I feel kind of disheartened because I was involved in a work reorganization that involved moving me from one division to another doing the same line of work. I am no longer in the office with people I worked with for many years and am now in a new office where I still am in a transition period of getting to know the new people. I had a good relationship with many of my prior co-workers and were even good work friends. Now that I have been moved, it reminds me of high school whereas they don't consider me to be in their group now, so I find that they are slowing forgetting about me because it requires effort to keep in touch. This hurts me, but I realize I can not do much about human behavior...such as, out of sight, out of mind. I, however, am not a kid and find that as I get older, I get tired of making new friends only to have them place no effort in staying in touch. I know that if I maintain contact with these people, it will be me doing all the work..now I am resentful. I also feel that they are friends, but not the kind of friends I thought....ones to call from time to time to see how I am doing. I get emails, but no inquiry as to how I am, even though at the time I left...they told me how much they were going to miss me.

    Any suggestions on how to deal with this transition, without feeling lonely.

    Thanks.
