Would you feel sad that your coworkers all went out drinking together and didn’t invite you?

[Breanna_nonbinary]

I feel so alienated. They all went out drinking together and are having fun together. They stopped by to sort of rub it in my face that they’re all going out to have fun. 😔

[PizzaDaddyo]

Sad no but, damned very; just for not getting an invite even if I didn’t want to go. Let’s just say I work at a pizza shop with lots of girls they go out more often nowadays. Never an invite personally but it’s really not that deep because I know I got my own group of friends and I don’t care, I let them to have their own girls night. I sadly don’t work with any dudes my age I would want to go to the bar with so it kind of makes sense that they wouldn’t ask me to go because once I go, it’s not a girls night anymore.

I think offended is the right emotion. Work events should be inclusory. I would counsel not to carry this through into work hours and be professional. Work does not include being friends.

It's possible they assume that you're already invited to all these events, since they are so openly talking about it in front of you...


Either that or they just are mean spirited people who are trying to hurt your feelings, in which case fuxk them. They aren't with your time.

[Breanna_nonbinary]

Basically they’re all female and I’m trans. They are all off tonight and I’m here covering the store.

[Opinion Owner]

Ohh I see. Sorry to hear that!

I am guessing they are excluding you due to your sexual orientation. That is very fucked up. But please don’t let it get to you. I know you’re upset, but there’s not much you can do. Ask yourself, what is something I can do that’s going to make me happy? You decide a day to go out alone or with close friends of yours and have fun.

[petitedollbabee]

I would feel sad that I didn’t get the option to go, but if I had the option and I chose not to go, then I wouldn’t feel sad. I don’t really drink.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Get yourself invited! I mean, ask them where they are and join them.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

And have so much fun that they never forget inviting you again.

[Breanna_nonbinary]

I got off at 1am and the bats close at 2. So by the time I get there they’ll be closed.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Maybe that’s why they didn’t invite? They must have known you were busy.

[Breanna_nonbinary]

So what you’re saying is that they only make plans to do stuff because I’m working and they aren’t.

[ProbablyClueless]

That would not make me feel sad. I'm really big on keeping my work and personal life totally separated. I would prefer to not have much contact with my coworkers outside of work.

[Spongebobssocks]

No I'd be happy. I dont drink, I dont go out and I dont care for people. (Unless its someone i'm close too).

[kylee2437]

I wouldn’t be that bothered. If you have the mind of wanting to work to make money, then the extra outings aren’t really needed.

[milknhoneyy]

Even though I don't drink and probably wouldn't go, honestly I'd still be sad I wasn't invited.

[MementoMori777]

then forget about them, go out drinking by yourself and put on some tv and you'll have a good time trust, your friends are buzz.

[Raperonzolo_Viv]

I would be sad for first time and I would never care about them and see them just coworkers Also, I wudn't trust them if they are the way as u said.

[douride2]

It wouldn't bother me at all. My coworkers know I am a non-drinker.

[najekim]

Nope. 70% of my co-workers are under 30 so I wouldn't really fit in anyways. Besides, I think they're a bit afraid to ask.

[Slingshot69]

No, I wouldn't feel offended. Being offended isn't a hobby of mine, and my happiness isn't dependent upon the actions or invites of my co-workers. Find friends that you don't work with

[Pohjolan]

I work in a large factory so the bar would be pretty stuffed.

[exitseven]

they all know I do not drink.

[soe11]

Never happened so I can't tell you.

[Juxtapose]

Well weren't you working and unavailable?
