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.

    Lots of people are giving you good answers given the context you’ve provided in this post. However, I glanced at your post history and saw that recently you’ve had an outburst at another employee where you shouted at them. It’s likely that your coworkers are looking out for themselves and trying to avoid setting you off by interacting with you as little as possible.
