I met this girl last year at this awful factory job last year. We started roughly a week apart from eachother on separate teams so I didn't get a chance to talk to her until one day I was transferred to her crew to cover someone who called in sick. We introduced ourselves and found out we both came from the same small village that was far away up in bumfuck nowhere and went to the same school, what a small world. After that we were great friends at work and always sat together during breaks. I was really interested in this girl but didn't build up the courage to tell her how I felt, so I just kept it to myself during our time working together. This went on for about 5 months until one day she told me it was her last day at work and that she found another job far far away in another city, We were both upset about it to the point where tears were actually shed. I spent the rest of the shift crying under my welding mask thinking about her and how I'll never see her again. We went out for drinks with some coworkers afterwards and said our goodbyes. Going back to work the following week knowing she wasn't going to be there ever again was so goddamn soul crushing. It sucked looking over at the work bench she once stood at now completely empty. Going for breaks was worse sitting alone at our table and thinking about all the funny conversations we had. It was such a shitty experience after she left. I eventually quit that job the following month when I accepted a job offer at another company just to escape the pain. She was the only person I looked forward to seeing at work, other than that, I absolutely hated the place.
TLDR: worked shitty job, met a girl, girl left, I got sad, I left job. life continues
