and how do I react next time they don’t greet me?

I started working at this department 3 weeks ago. I went into the office I now work at, greeted 2 coworkers I’ve already worked with, they looked at me, said nothing, kept talking to themselves.

How am I supposed to interpret that?

To me this is disrespectful, maybe you disagree?

Then, as I was working, I saw both of them staring at me. What am I supposed to do when that happens? To me this signals hostility and passive aggressiveness.

I separate private life from personal one but even I know that the least you can do is to greet your coworkers, unless you want them to quit.

    meh, don’t let them play mind games.

    Bring in some donuts, keeps saying hi, don’t let it get to you. Let your happiness outshine their standoffishness

    The worst thing you can do is reciprocate that just lets them win.
