I was furloughed back in April but noone from my team or even my manager has reached out to check on me via text. I didn't expect them to, but it would have been nice being that I was the only one furloughed. Am I allowed to feel this way or should I just let it go?

Let it go. Yes, it would be nice but everyone has their own things going on. Don't take it personally, it's not worth it.

And yes, you're allowed to feel this way just don't dwell on it. Use it as an indicator for whether or not you want to still be with this company.

Sending a virtual hug, you'll be ok! ♥️

Your feelings are justified - I was just furloughed and if no one from my team had reached out I’d be hurt. Sometimes people don’t know what to say so don’t say anything. But I agree with Director, don’t dwell on it.

Update: I was officially let go 3 weeks ago. I sent a thank you note to my manager immediately but still have not heard anything from her. I know for a fact she is on her phone constantly. It's hard not to feel upset bc I really thought we got along so well. She always had my back and I finally had a manager that I liked. I don't know what to do. I am hurt and angry. I expected some sort of response. :(

Thank you Director. You're right, I don't need that in my life. Time to move on. Onwards and upwards.
