「(今は違うけど、)以前~していた」と
言う時はused to~という助動詞を使います。

参考になれば幸いです。
The phrase “we used to” explains that it was something done in the past. Secondly using the word “same” will help you to understand that they worked together.
“we used to” は、それが過去の出来事であることを表します。
次に、“same”は同じ職場で働いていたことを伝えます。
The term used for someone you used to work with is 'coworker' so you would say 'we used to be coworkers' although you could also say 'I used to work with him' or 'we used to work together'
以前一緒に働いていた人を表すときには 'coworker'(同僚)が使われます。ですから、次のように言うことができます。
'we used to be coworkers'(私たちは昔一緒に働いていました)
次のように言うこともできます。
'I used to work with him'(昔彼と一緒に働いていました)
'we used to work together'(私たちは昔一緒に働いていました)
A 'workmate' is someone with whom you work at the same company. It can be used in place of 'co-worker'. However, a 'co-worker is' normally someone in a similar role or similar level at the same company, whereas, a 'workmate' is someone who works at the same organization as you but may not necessarily be at the same level as you.
So, when referring to someone you previously worked with, you may say:
He used to be my workmate at my previous company.
or
He was my co-worker at my previous workplace.
workmate' は同じ会社で一緒に働いている人をいいます。これは 'co-worker'(同僚)の代わりに使うことができます。
ただし、'co-worker' は普通同じ会社の地位や役目が似た人をいいますが、'workmate' は、同じ組織で働いている人ですが、必ずしも同じ地位であるとは限りません。
以前一緒に働いていた人について、次のように言えます。
He used to be my workmate at my previous company.
He was my co-worker at my previous workplace.
(彼は前の会社で同僚でした)
People that we work with are called coworkers, colleagues, associates, or fellow workers. When you left a company then you can use the following sentences to express yourself.
"We used to be colleagues!"
"I used to work with him!"
"used to" refers to somebody that you have worked with, in the past
"He was my coworker!"
"was" is used as a verb in this sentence and is the past tense of "be"
一緒に仕事をしている人のことは "coworkers" や "colleagues" "associates" "fellow workers" と呼ばれます。会社を辞めたときには、次のように言うことができます。
"We used to be colleagues!"(私たちは昔仕事の同僚でした)
"I used to work with him!"(昔彼と一緒に働いていました)
"used to" は昔一緒に働いていた人を指します。
"He was my coworker!"(昔彼と一緒に働いていました)
この文の動詞は "was" です。これは "be" の過去形です。
Work colleague or colleagues describes someone you used to work with often on the same level i.e not your boss.
co workers is also used to describe work colleagues.
Colleague' is a word used to describe someone that you
work with or a co-worker.
Colleagues or co-workers work together at the same company.
The word 'former' should be used to communicate that you
used to be colleagues before, and you no longer work
together.
