You once resigned, it seems that no one recognizes you, is it really?

In reality, it is indeed true. Reality is always so cruel, 'people leave, tea is cold' is indeed a normal phenomenon, even if the colleagues you used to consider as confidantes may just see you as an ordinary colleague.

I have also experienced similar things, which can reveal the coldness and warmth of human hearts, and see through the essence of the workplace.

However, we should not be upset about this.

I. Human warmth and coldness, it is just like this

​

Water is not tested, you will not know which depths and which shallows, people do not connect, you will not know who is good who is bad, goods are not endless, you will not know who gathers who disperses, people are not rich, you will not know who is cold who is warm, people are not rich, you will not know who is cold who is warm.

Worldly human relationships, warmth and coldness are self-known, the workplace and even life are like this, it's complex and simple at the same time.

Once I resigned, it seems that no one recognizes you, is it really? In fact, it is not excessive.

People's hearts are made of meat, from bustling streets to empty seats, from peak positions to being disregarded, this cruel change cannot be accepted all at once.

When I returned to my hometown, I worked in a similar job to my previous position, which required travel, coincidentally to the city where my previous company was located.

I remembered that I had worked with my colleagues for a total of three years, and I wanted to gather with my old colleagues again. I estimated that probably not many people would come, but I didn't expect that only three colleagues arrived, and none of them were the ones I thought would definitely come.

One, many people can recognize you, but few can truly get close to you; many people can laugh with you, but few can cry with you.

When you have already resigned, it is inevitable to turn from 'warmth' to 'coldness', and you can only adapt to this change.

People's hearts are made of meat, from bustling streets to empty seats, from peak positions to being disregarded, this cruel change cannot be accepted all at once.

Returning to my hometown, I worked in a similar job to my previous position, which required travel, coincidentally to the city where my previous company was located.

I remembered that I had worked with my colleagues for a total of three years, and I wanted to gather with my old colleagues again. I estimated that probably not many people would come, but I didn't expect that only three colleagues arrived, and none of them were the ones I thought would definitely come.

II. People's intentions, all for profit.

​

Sima Qian said in 'Records of the Grand Historian' that 'the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.' This statement is still widely used today. As Taishi Gong said, in this restless era, people's intentions are all for one 'profit' – to obtain tangible benefits and advantages.

Just like thousands of miles apart, chasing fame and fortune is the nature of everyone, without any external interference, it is inevitable.

At that gathering, the old colleagues who attended, one of whom was in an awkward 'middle layer' and hoped to introduce me to my company through me, which was a request.

If not, this past colleague who had no apparent relationship with me would obviously not come to the party.

III. People leave, tea is cold, it's just like this

When people say 'in the depths of eternity, there is a predetermined arrangement' it gives people a feeling of being out of touch with reality and a sense of detachment. This is not just about being aloof, but also about the attitude we should have towards reality.

Life is a continuous drift, and there will be many passersby along the way. The workplace is originally a place where 'people leave, tea is cold'. There is little genuine emotion, and it is best to view it with composure.

Sometimes things just happen by chance. After the gathering, I went to represent my current company's bidding, and coincidentally met a representative of my previous company. It was that internship student I had taken with me.

When the elevator met, we nodded to each other, and then there was no further communication. Only the representatives of the two companies participated in the bidding.

It's said that 'the workplace is like the Jianghu'. The workplace is even less human-hearted and warm compared to romantic love.

People leave, tea is cold, it's just like this, it's a natural rule of human relationships, and it's the same in the workplace.

​

When I was in the company, I thought I was a 'career guide' to him, like his teacher, but he didn't know how he saw me. From a simple business relationship, I helped him develop.

Now, I am just a colleague in another city, but I am also his competitor. I have no connection to him.

However, I am at ease. If he remembers the old feelings and comes to the party, that's best. If he doesn't come, it can be understood.
