I (23) Female work at a restaurant well worked at a restaurant for the past 3-4 months. I have worked at restaurants for 5 plus years and know the ins and outs including front of house and back of house. I have been working at this restaurant kind of as a last resort due to not getting enough pay from my last job. At first everything seemed fine. I knew some of the coworkers as they are close friends with my boyfriend and I would hang out with them at bars and shows. I became acquaintances with many of the coworkers and enjoyed the small conversations we had. Although this job was very stressful and the days seemed to be long the people around you made the day go by faster. Fast forward to my last month of working there ( I found a new job). The energy in the air had shifted because I contracted the flu and couldn’t go to work for a couple of my shifts. I show up after recovery and everyone is completely silent. But only to me. Ppl no longer said hi or just a slight wave. But then I would hear laughter when my name was brought up or they would just walk away from me when I would try or start conversation. Then things got worse. They would huddle in circles and I was the only excluded and I would hear my name and other mean remarks. I chose not to say anything out of respect of the workplace and my boyfriend’s friends. I simply did not want to start drama. My coworkers were always super cliquey but now it was even worse. You know that feeling when they are talking about you but not to your face? Yeah that feeling. Made me feel absolutely horrible inside and made me question my character. Then came to me putting in my two weeks. My boyfriend’s friend is the manager and after I put in my two weeks he began to role his eyes when I came into work and or completely ignore me and talk to everyone else. Again made me feel horrible. So I would stop showing up to my shifts. Every single shift my last month I felt like I was getting bullied but as an adult by other adults. So I did not want to go to work. Everyday I would come home from work I wanted to cry and sometimes did. So today on my last day it was all of the above but worse. I was being ignored by everyone ( even by the manager) would hear my name in their group huddles followed my mean remarks and laughter. Definitely hurt my feelings knowing everyone I spent the last 3-4 months with didn’t care I was leaving. Before my last day a coworker asked me to cover her shift and at first I said yes but I gave it back to her and made it her problem to figure out. So Reddit AITA?

• they would do other mean things such as make things harder in the workplace but I chose not to add them for the sake of time with that being said I did only not show up for about 4 shifts and the rest I had gotten covers*
