Weird experience on my first team
So I moved teams but honestly my first team was kind of a bad experience for me. It was my first job out of college. I did not really know what working was like. My coworkers were mostly around my age. I guess this is where I made a stupid move. I guess I thought I could be friends with them or something. I would sometimes talk to them at work. Not all the time but sometimes when I got bored or something. I feel like they took it really really badly. They kinda made jokes about the things I said (said that some things I said sounds “sexual” like one time I said something along the lines of some character with something in their mouth and of course they took it as oral sex). it also didn’t help that I was the only woman on the team. I could kinda get the vibe from the way they talked to me and their body language that they really did not like me and they kinda saw me as a dumbass . it was a very bad feeling that I hadn’t felt since middle school, they were so cliquey and I was the weird one. honestly somehow I try to be friends or nice to people but they end up hating me and somehow it’s all my fault. idk maybe this was just a vent. I just felt terrible and I just dont know how things ended up that bad. I wonder if this is normal. at least for now, my new team is better towards me, but I’ve also been avoiding them a little so that they don’t “get to know“ my really weird and eccentric personally and start hating me like the other team. Im joining new things outside on the weekends now because I’m just so lonely and sad after college. it is so hard to get friends now. and trying to “make friends“ at work really blew up in my face. idk if my new team is different but I really don’t feel like testing the waters after falling into hot water last team. idk, after middle school ended, I really didn’t think I was going to have that bad of an experience with my peers again. I guess I was wrong. yeah, oh well, vent over I guess.
