Have they ignored you since you started? Or did they just START to ignore you? Perhaps they just don't know you well enough yet since you said you just went back to work.

I don't think I'd quit the job -- not in this economy!! Jobs are VERY difficult to find, and getting another one might not be as easy as you think.

Give the people time. Let them get to know you. Just be as friendly as you can, and see what happens. I wish you the very best. Take care & God bless. Hugs, Lee
Thanks for this!

well said Lee, people are often quiet with newbees, they need time to get to know you just as you need time to get to know them, there will always be some who ignore you, you can't do anything about that, focus on those who don't.
until you are 'accepted' just think of the money it brings in and what that will allow you to do/buy. stick it out a while longer, you never know a really good friend may come from this job
good luck
take care x
Thanks for this!

its hard to tell what your circumstances are as you did not reveal too much. but its true with the economy, quitting your job is not a good idea. dont let others push you out of it. you are not there to please others. you have a job to do there. focus on it, not on what others may or may not be thinking. eventually they will get over it. dont let them get you down
Thanks for this!

I am sorry you are having a bad day! Sometimes the first day back at work can be hard or if it is new job that can be real stressful. I bet your co-workers just don't know what to say. Hang in if it's just your first day! It usually gets better.
Thanks for this!
