In my former job almost all of my colleagues were 50+ and I was in my late 20s. It was definitely uncomfortable and lonely for awhile, they would talk about their grown kids and grandkids, houses etc and I had none of that yet. But eventually I did establish good rapport with a couple of the women until a couple years in they eventually hired another woman closer to my age, so ut turned out ok. So hang in there, you earned that position
Feeling out of place at work
Have you ever felt out of place at work? Like I am the only black and young person in the leadership team so I feel out of place as they already have their own circle. Now with my colleagues in lower positions where I used to be before being promoted… they’ve stopped including me in their little circle so I feel totally out of place. Yes I know work is for work only but sometimes it helps reduce the loneliness when you have some “work friends”. I don’t know how to describe how I feel but has anyone ever felt this way?
