I don't apply to Workday jobs anymore. I've spent countless hours making new accounts with them and filling in their endless forms that make you regurgitate your resume. I've never gotten a single interview throughout the 100+ applications I have submitted through their black hole. Does anyone else quit as soon as they see a Workday redirect? https://preview.redd.it/wf1g7eksin0b1.png?width=261&format=png&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=417dda2657d64c788586cb1f34ae2ad29c82b302
i just recently started serving at a small restaurant in my town and i really enjoy it except for this one terrible manager. i understand during our rush that everyone gets stressed but she will get in your face and scream at you. i can handle the yelling but one thing i can’t do is being touched. i have severe ptsd from a very abusive relationship and being touched by other people is one of my triggers. the other day when we weren’t even in a rush i was standing behind her waiting to grab my food from the kitchen when she turned around, grabbed me by my wrists and dragged me to the other side of the table that the kitchen puts their food on and yelled at me to stand over there. not only was it super triggering for me but it was also humiliating and degrading as…

You're hard work and compassion has made this company. Not [redacted]’s. Yours. You deserve to be compensated and have access to the means of your production. A company that claims to be different yet keeps all the fruits of OUR labor to themselves deserves to be questioned. We are [redacted]. Our calls, our work for our members, has allowed them the lives they lead. I leave [redacted] grateful for the opportunity but disappointed it's ended so predictably; with money staying at the top.

I'm so numb to rejections or not being answered that I feel like I need to show the same attitude towards these companies. I'll see something that looks even the slightest bit remotely like something I might be interested in or have experience with and hit “apply” mindlessly, then move on. Maybe if I keep tossing my resume out there it'll stick. It doesn't feel like my job search is productive anymore, it feels exactly like I'm scrolling through reddit and upvoting somewhat interesting posts before moving to the next one right away. It really feels like a hopeless endeavor.
