I am the missing child

Tweet

That's how I felt. Wait, I think it's more like I'm the stepdaughter that my new mom doesn't notice... Since I changed department, I thought my new boss would instantly listed my name into her mailing list. She must've forgotten about me... Today's Covid test was an example of it. I didn't remove my previous team chatroom yet so I still received notifications in there. But I didn't tell my boss that. It's a good thing I never remove it or I wouldn't know which slot my name was in. This morning I pretended not to know a thing and message my boss, asking about my slot. She asked whether I got the email and I told her I never received any email regarding it. Then I messaged a friend in the new department, asking the same thing and told her I never got the email. She forwarded the email to me. I think we need to work on our communication skill. Or I would just step up and ask HR to include my name into the main mailing list myself.
