Even if you get the right connections and somehow end up famous in some way they will still exploit you but 5x more than in any corporate job and drain you up and spit you out when they don’t need you bc they see you as just as replaceable too. And you’re forced to work hard 24/7 busting your behind to stay relevant otherwise you’ll loose profit or they’ll dump you and look for someone else and your career is over.

im new to work as just graduated so i really dont know if what i experienced is harassment but i felt uncomfortable and i think it was, but what is especially shocking is that my company has had anti-harassment seminars and supposedly take this stuff very seriously, so i just assumed that this wouldnt happen, yet maybe i was naive? am i alone in this
not the change i was hoping for
new job hired me at a time when they’re too busy to give me any training or answer my questions so now i look like a fucking dickhead for not knowing what i’m doing. i’m particularly upset/angry about this because i left my previous job and was hoping for a) a better work environment/pay and b) some time off. instead, this new place was absolutely desperate for me to start asap so i didn’t get the time off i wanted and now i feel depressed and anxious every day because i can’t take the stress of not knowing how to do my job.
