We are short staffed and management keeps asking me if I know anyone interested but I would wish this company upon my worst enemy.

I work in a large corporate setting in a organization that’s considered “prestigious” in the industry. I used to really care about how I was perceived, such as by the clothes I wear. The dress code is business casual, and for women, the term can be extremely ambiguous. I used to stress so much about what I was wearing and whether it’s considered business casual or not. I used to be self conscious because other women were wearing their blouses tucked in and honestly I just hated doing so.

My main problem is that we got maybe a few hours of work each day and after that we are just sitting our asses off in those buildings until we can finally go home and I'm sick of it. Normally I have a colleague working with me but I got my first project now on which I am working alone. My working times are normally from 6 to 2 but the last few weeks I caught myself working from 9 to 11 max or I stood at home the whole day because I don't really see a…
