I have quit so many jobs in my past mid 20s but this pandemic really is affecting me to get a job why is nobody hiring me I have plied to so many jobs and nobody wants to hire me I am 32 years old and nobody wants to hire me what the hell is going on with this economy I even got a agency program to help me find me a job and there’ did applied and help me to get a job but this is the third rejection letter I got from a job even the agency told me this is not normal so my question is this does my past plays a big role of me quitting job and not getting hired

To start out, I live in the state of Minnesota. During the course of the day, my supervisor was engaged in a lengthy conversation with me on the subject of the Titanic submarine that went missing recently, for a considerable duration of approximately six hours. Did literally nothing. Following this incident, my responsibility as the only employee here compelled me to open the store this morning and subsequently close the establishment today, as per my scheduled 12-hour shift, which I considered manageable. However, prior to her departure, my supervisor casually mentioned the possibility of my being required to work a full day tomorrow. (Another 12 hour shift, which is open to close, so 12 hours not including time it takes to close) Consequently, this would result in a demanding work schedule with four consecutive 12-hour shifts from Tuesday to Friday this week, in addition to the six-hour shift I already…

Has all the perks! A 20 minute lunch. I hated that extra 10 minutes anyways Can’t leave site while on break. Not even to your car. Good thing I love being stuck in a factory all day! Mandatory overtime on the weekend so you don’t have anytime to spend with loved ones before you inevitably die (probably due to the cancer causing smoke produced my melting down plastic resin to create molds with)… Yes please! $15/hr for your single income family even though rent lower than $1k is literally nonexistent. I fucking hate it 🙂 my life is miserable and I have not enjoyed a second of it to this point

My place of work gives out performance based pay increases, it works on the basis that you’re paid in increments as a promise to train on another area within the role and become more agile. Being a naive new starter, I have now accepted the highest increase for more training, but there are people on the team who are trained on the bare basics and paid a lot more. I’m a wuss – how do I word this to my manager to say I want the money for my work?! Don’t want to leave due to job security.

Many years ago I used to work at this job, which paid me great, but they were treting me literally like a slave. “You didn't meet your goal for the day? You don't leave until you done” (no OT paying) “I need you to come to work 1 hour early every day. You don't have things to do? Oh really? how about this?” (and they would come up with something stupid that literally they just invented. Basicaly, i was bullied and afraid to leave, because I had great salary. Now reading this sub, I understand I could have done many things. But the thing was, if I would have told them that I would sue them and that I have my rights as a worker, they would just fire me, with a reason that ” i wasn't doing my job well” and nobody could prove that it wasn't that way.…

My advice to those entering the workforce from someone who has been loyal to the same company for over 10 years: job hop!! Do NOT stay in one place too long. You don't get any kind of long term reward for staying with your job for a decade. The opposite actually, you get punished. New hires are coming in making what I make now after years (not bitter at them, it's a reminder work doesn't care about you) Another disadvantage is all of your professional references and experience get tied to just one place. This makes leaving incredibly difficult.
