Companies are trying really hard to extract extra work to the point of outright bait and switching job titles

I work as a 3D Artist right now. Over a year ago I applied for a position that was expressly described as a full time, salaried position with benefits at this company. Interviews went great, the Creative Director asked if I wanted to come into office for three days to test working, and I would be paid for these days. I agreed, and came in the following week. The first red flag was the HR manager sending me a 1099 form for contract work. I immediately confronted her asking why I was being given a contract tax form when the position was labeled for salaried full time? She said it should only be for a short term/ trial basis, and the Creative Director would have final say if they felt I would fit in the full time role.

I have a job interview in 35 minutes and I’ve never been happier

I’ve hated my job and been suicidal because of it. I’ve been applying to jobs this entire year, I applied to 1-3 a week this entire entire year. I’ve had 3 jobs say that they’re looking for other candidates. I did get another job interview last month, but my parents said that the job is dangerous. My birthday is coming up, and if I get this job, I’m going into work and quitting on my birthday. I can’t wait. I’ll let you guys know if I get the job.

They said oh well it'll be plenty of hours I can't really take a chance on you if you're looking for other jobs blah blah blah. I said alright then that's perfect just having one job would be better anyway. Tell me why these people have given me 2 hours. 2. For the last three weeks. 6 hours total. I told them my availability is literally anytime any day. And now I'm fucked because they lied. The managers excuse is it's so hard to schedule you with people who can train… How???? I'm always available. I have panicked applying to other places the past two weeks. No other place has called me back. I can't…
