Who it is for › Remote work
For friendships that ran on being in the same building
The friendships made of lunch queues and lifts did not survive the office ending, and nobody noticed at the time.
What this actually looks like
You never had to plan it
Neither of you ever arranged anything. The building did all the arranging.
There is no natural next step
Without the building, nothing creates the next conversation, so there is not one.
You are not sure they want to hear from you
You would want to hear from them. It works the same way round.
What Ciao! does about it
It creates the next step
A card, once a week, is the reason the conversation never needed before.
Keep the good ones, quietly
Add the three people you actually liked. Nobody is told and nothing is shared.
Write down what they are up to
Job, move, dog, deadline. The things standing in a queue used to tell you for free.
