I applied for another position at my current job and they keep me stand-by in case they find someone better

So I’m working at this place I kinda like for more than a year now. It’s the first time I don’t hate the place, the bosses and the employees. I kinda feel like I’m part of a family. And it’s a great improvement because I have always hated my past jobs. I’m currently working part-time because I went back to school. But I recently realized that school is not made for me. In the meantime, a new position opened at my current job. They hired a girl without any experience only because they knew her for years and got well along, but she quit because she wasn’t paid enough. So the position is vacant again and the company is looking for someone new. I thought it would be a great option since I already know the team and part of the job and that I want to quit school and…


So I’m working at this place I kinda like for more than a year now. It’s the first time I don’t hate the place, the bosses and the employees. I kinda feel like I’m part of a family. And it’s a great improvement because I have always hated my past jobs. I’m currently working part-time because I went back to school. But I recently realized that school is not made for me. In the meantime, a new position opened at my current job. They hired a girl without any experience only because they knew her for years and got well along, but she quit because she wasn’t paid enough. So the position is vacant again and the company is looking for someone new. I thought it would be a great option since I already know the team and part of the job and that I want to quit school and need a full-time job. So I applied even though I don’t have all the qualifications, but the other girl didn’t have them either and still got hired. I want to finish my semester in school, which ends in only a month and they want to hire NOW. But the last time they were looking for someone, they only found their new employee after 8 months of looking around. The reason is that it’s a small place and they can’t pay as much as they should and they also look for a specific type of person who’s enter all their qualifications. It’s unrealistic and they know it, that’s why they finally hired this girl. So I talked to them about the job and told them I was interested. They’re considering me, but they’re still looking for someone better. I mean, I understand, but at the same time, I’m pretty sure they won’t find anyone else. They told me that if they hired me, they would be in trouble to fill in my current position. It’s a part-time student job. It’s easy af to find someone. I think they’re just trying to go easy on me and don’t actually want me for the job. But if they don’t give me a chance, they’ll be searching for two more employees because I will definitely quit. Sorry, I just wanted to vent about it. It sucks when employers don’t see your value as a person. And sorry, english is not my first language, so it may be hard to understand.
