I've been to several job interviews and they asked me if I take medications and so I said yes because I'm clinically diagnosed. With all those job interviews, I got rejected. I think I'm fairly capable, I graduated with latin honors and held down a job for 16 months, even when I have a condition. Companies will reject people with mental condition, there's no inclusivity at all. Now this makes me feel horrible. Can I get your insights? Thanks.

This post is mostly a vent. I got transferred to a yard much closer to home. Awesome. My new crew leader is fine. The equipment driver is someone Iv worked with and get along with. My crew leader has to go work in my old yard for two days during my first week. When he comes back he starts bad talking all my old coworker friends, and it turns out he was talking trash about me too. He told one of the guys at my old yard that if I’m still on his crew he will quit. Then this Friday he turned in his truck, chainsaws, and all the company equipment. He’s been with the company for more than 10 years. I’m not the hardest worker, but I’m consistently working. He expects me to run full speed in ice/snow because he wants takes safety shortcuts. Safety is supposed to be…

The company I work for made a deepfake of me and other employees singing songs, apparently for a “fun” company party. Is this even legal?

Fuck a job! No I'm not lazy, just too old to work another shitty job that fucks with my mental health all the time. If I don't get my dream job or even better somehow able to be self employed before my savings runs out, I might have to kill myself. It's so annoying to hear some people even say the word “job” (aka Just Over Broke) to me. My mental health is important. I guess I'll see how things go.

Did I already miss it?

I was thinking about the little signs, policies, and actions that tell you a company is not pro-emlployee, and was wondering if you guys had any thoughts on it. I'll start: Motion sensor lights in the bathroom that turn off after 5 minutes of stillness

My mental health is beyond me at this point. Where do I start? I left my “comfortable” job back in April 2021 for a great job (or so I thought) opportunity with better pay. I was constantly harassed by the person training me and management did absolute nothing when I brought it to their attention. It was toxic. I hated every day of my life when I worked there. It was absolutely chaos. I would literally come home and cry to my husband EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I ended up getting “laid off” less than two months into the job. It was a huge hit on my ego since it was the first job I was ever fired from (“laid off”) due to performance. I was so embarrassed especially since I was always a top performer at all my previous jobs. ​ Fast forward, I found out I was pregnant shortly…
