They could just not be very aware of the severity of the situation. Do wish you and your loved ones are safe though!

You are for sure overthinking this.
100p. I feel you OP but sometimes have to remember it’s coworkers not your friends

Some people just don’t keep up with news.
I had no clue there was a hurricane about to hit FL until someone else on my team mentioned it.

It's not personal, don't overthink this one.

Thanks! Understood. They could’ve at least asked how I was doing??? I get it, ppl won’t necessarily display the same care/concern as I would which sucks, but I’m working on accepting that and just keep it moving.

You are right to notice that. I was on a town hall led by our regional executive who mentioned they reached out to every individual employee in the area of the hurricane to make sure they were ok. Around a few dozen people. It’s a major weather event and it’s been the major headline all over the US.
Welcome to America, where virtually nobody cares

Hope you’re staying safe OP! Where in FL are you located? I have friends in Tampa/Ft Myers who are getting absolutely pummeled.
On the other hand several on the east coast are still having to go into the office 🤦♂️

They’re probably unaware. I was unaware and my mom lives in FL. Not until my client asked me how my mom was doing because a relative of theirs lives in the same town did I become aware of what was going on. Idk if it’s just us Americans that are oblivious to what is going on in other states or we just suck as human beings 😕

People who don’t follow the news are gross.
Stay safe, OP- this is such an extreme situation.
I mean, FL is a big state. Which part are you in?
Yeah ok that is pretty weird then (assuming they know where you are). Some people are just oblivious as opposed to mean though…
Enthusiast
A lot of people from other places are only vaguely aware of the hurricane situation. I wouldn’t know about it if I didn’t see the FL peeps on here posting about it.
I had no idea there was a hurricane till this post

I had no idea there was a hurricane.
Your company doesn’t have a safety/resilience group?
We been doing 2x a day checking with our employees and we are small company but that’s bc we are super hyper about resilience in general
Where in Florida are you based?
