Returning to work and FaceBook

[CathTurnbull]

I really don’t know if IABU or overthinking this.

I work in what I thought was a friendly team and we have been on furlough, due to go back to work tomorrow. Most of us are on Facebook and have posted general stuff for the last 6 months about our day, what we’re up to, how are children are etc.

As we gradually came out of lockdown I started going out and about more, meeting people for walks, and noticed that people gradually stopped commenting on my posts.

I haven’t broken any rules but have been quite active for example went out a lot with the ‘eat out to help out’ scheme and went to Corfu last minute for my birthday and got back yesterday.

I’ve private messaged my colleagues who all seem ok, but are a bit cold and abrupt in there responses. I get the distinct impression I have upset them / pissed them off.

I’m due to see them tomorrow and feel a bit anxious- have I done anything wrong?

Nicky Grainger!

I have now noted that Cath Turnbull is the op! Didn't see her name first time round.

Hi Cath

I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the EO to HO scheme and a lovely holiday abroad returning to the UK recently. Now instead of worrying about Facebook posts tell your hubby to get off his bottom and cook Christmas dinner this year and give him a rest?

Just read the other post.

give you a rest not him !

I hope the holiday was lovely

Facebook and work should never meet

Is this a reverse? Your other thread is the polar opposite of this.

Brilliant. So which is it I wonder? 👀 is there any truth in either thread? 🧐

They were probably commenting a lot because they had nothing better to do in lockdown than scroll through social media. Lots of people became more active on SM because we couldn't see each other IRL.

Now we can do that, people do not need to communicate that way as much.

Also i would find it VERY boring if i had to see endless pics/posts about you going out to eat.

It's rich being anxious about it when you've been criticising others for doing the exact same as you and not socially distancing.

What's that smell....oh it's ok, just the smell of bullshit.

Honestly, that Cath bloody Turnbull! What’s she like, eh?! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Did your work colleagues and Mark Zuckerberg really need to know? I had to cancel a holiday to relatives one of whom I have not seen for several years, and I think I would not have been pleased to have a post like yours.

I prefer to do this thing called talking to people, using this contraption called a telephone.

Do you have "Princess" somewhere in your FB name despite being an adult?

I'm intrigued now. Which is it OP? Are you the one going on last minute holidays and eating out all the time or are you posting about someone else?

What if Cath Turnball is the OP's colleague and has been posting loads of shit on FB it is Cath Turnball her relative. I'm a bit too invested in this now.
