Have put this here as it's sort of Christmas related.
I work quite a lot on my own because of the nature of my job, over 300 people work here, all in teams, apart from me and my boss - think quality control type job.
So although I interact with people I don't work with them iyswim.
anyhoo doesn't normally bother me, but at Christmas it does. The teams all have nights out arranged or have been on them. The big works do is on the last day of school - and I love picking my DC's up on that day so don't want anyone else to do it - so I'm not going on the big do.
and all of the directors who I work on the same floor as have all just gone out for lunch together, and I've been left here by myself.
I just feel like crying, I feel so lonely and isolated.
I've just smiled when I've walked into other peoples offices and they have christmas cards up ..... I haven't received one.
It really is bringing up all the feelings of isolation from school, and subsequent jobs where I've felt left out, and the other mums at school.
Feel very
my throat hurts from trying not to cry
