I know this will sound silly but after I returned to work from maternity leave, I feel very excluded. The rest of my office (all men) have set up a new WhatsApp group where they chat general stuff, do lots of football league table predictions. They’ve been doing a World Cup accumulator and didn’t invite me to join in.
They just all communicate outside of work now in this group and talk about their conversations whilst in work. I just feel very left out and ignored. Not really sure if there’s anything I can do? Just feel lonely and not wanted there. I know I sound pathetic.
