I just need to vent as I’ve been pissed off the last few days about this. I worked at a municipality this winter as a seasonal plow driver with the hopes of getting one of the full time spots that would be open at the end of the winter. Well I busted my ass came in every storm I was called in for, sacrificed my the holidays, weekends, and gave up time to spend with family, worked exceptionally hard and did damn good work only to be completely passed over for a kiss ass and some guy who was basically hired before the fucking interviews even happened and never even tempted here. I was told by one of the head people that “it was a very tough decision but we’d like for you to come back and be a seasonal worker and try again for full time next year. You did a very good job with us this year and we’d really like to see you back”. Like what’s the fucking point if the 2 people you hired both knew people here, to me it sounds like they just want me back as a temp and they’ll use the opportunity of full time as a carrot tied to a stick to get me to work harder than the rest except I’ll never get that carrot it’ll always be just out of reach. Seeing how this turned out I don’t think I’ll be going back next winter.
