As I said in the title, I finally got a job 500+ CVs, a year of looking, and finally, I got a job and both even corporate hell, hahahaha.
For the last year I've Been job hopping and looking for any place where I don't get treated like scum for being new or inexperienced that just made the search take so much longer but it finally happened.
I got a job working as a private consultant, but the employer is also training me in so much. Actual guidance, real experience, and most importantly, for the first time in my life, I'm not waking up dreading my day, wishing I was dead instead of having to get up on the mornings.
But what makes this belong in this sub is
Why is it that something as necessary as employment on any level is so insanely hard to get
I'm too inexperienced to work in the places I wanted to
I was “over qualified” for stocking shelves (general grocery store, part-time labor. I just wanted to get a few bucks every month), but grocery stores didn't want to take me because of my qualifications
Then, there is the insane hurdle of constant interviews and stupid methods of applying. I don't want to make 5 fucking accounts to apply to the same position to different fucking employers making a damn connected account isn't that hard
Not to even get started on how just asinine the the office culture is
I hate my family at home and if my office wants to be my family it's just not gonna be functional so why even “we are a family here” me when it's obvious by the suicide netting outside your toxic.
The constant meetings and how little boundaries management has
I had more suicidal thoughts waking up in the morning and going to sleep at night while I was employed compared to now I wake up and I actually don't hate life.
WHY ?
Because my fucking employer is treating me like an actual human being with a life of their own
Why is it so difficult for so many employers to see especially today. Why when we are all sinking do you drill more holes in the boat (honestly expect managers/politicians to answer with “so the water has a way to get out “)
People want to work and be compensated
People don't want to apply to hundreds of positions as low down as a waiter and still get effed in the a by someone who barely cares of they starve or go homeless this month
