I’ve worked with my friend for a year. We text a lot and meet up outside of work. I felt we were fairly close.
Recently I’ve decided to take on extra training at work and put extra hours in with the aim of a promotion to a certain department perhaps in the future. I told her about it in passing at the beginning of this week and she said she didn’t feel it was a path she would take personally for various reasons.
So then yesterday we are waiting for a meeting to start and she is in the same corridor having a loud conversation with a manager and the manager is saying ‘oh yes we would love to have you in our department’ and I’m getting wind of the fact that my friend has decided to do the same as me. She was telling the manager that she has also found an out of work training course for it that she has begun.
She is doing the exact same as me. And not said a word to me about it. And told me a few days ago that she wouldn’t want to do it for several reasons.
If she had said to me ‘oh yeah I might do that too’ etc I’d have said oh great, we can pursue that Avenue together then. But I feel weird that she poo-pood it only a few days ago but has now begun training and organised the same thing I have without saying a word to me.
AIBU? I know this isn’t AIBU btw I’m just scared of posting in there- it can be vicious!
