Getting into contact with my previous coworkers?
A year ago, I was in college and worked for my campus mail office. The work wasn't always great, but I loved my job because I loved the people I worked with. They were always so kind and funny, and were just wonderful.
At that time, I was majoring in speech pathology. I wasn't really interested in it anymore (hadn't been for about a year) but didn't feel like I had any other options. You have to go to grad school to practice, so last year I was also applying for grad schools.
Anyway, I didn't get into grad school, which was probably a blessing in disguise. But I was really embarrassed about the fact and of course, not knowing what else to do, told my coworkers that I did get in. So now, they think that I'm in grad school.
I ran into another student worker at a store the other day and we were talking - of course, he thinks I'm in grad school as well (he is, but for something different). He's really great. He told me that he'd been back to the mail place several times to visit.
I had told my supervisors and coworkers that I'd come back when I left. I really intended to, but I left kind of embarrassed and confused about my personal life. In all honesty, I still kind of am and I have very low self-esteem, so it's strange to think about going back and seeing them in person - I'd like to feel more secure personally and a bit more confident before I did that (ideally, hopefully I get there someday).
BUT I thought that I may send one of my supervisors an email, telling them what I'm up to now. Maybe agreeing to pop in - who knows.
My question is, how on earth would I do that? It's been a year with no contact - is it too late/strange now to send them a message?
