I left my last company 3.5 months ago in order to earn more money. It’s as simple as that. 3 years for a geotech consultant with only 5k in payrises over the course of time just wasn’t cutting it for me.
After leaving I had multiple of my old colleagues message me asking g about the mines and how it’s going and what it pays like.
I received a text message this evening from the drilling manager of this company I left (completely seperate department to my old bosses) saying (and I copy and paste)
“Don’t ever try and poach my guys again
Over and out 😡😡😡”
Caught very off guard and I’m quite a sensitive person so this has weighed on me all evening. I messaged a couple of the drillers in his team to see if there’s something they know that I don’t and they said that text was very out of character.
Do I just leave this? Or do I bring this up with my old bosses who I am still very close with? I loved the company and especially that gdrilling manager and I feel I deserve an explanation?
