Resume/CV gaps

I just had a interview for an internship,. I need to do it as part of my university course. I was at the 2nd stage interview today. I was asked why there was a gap between me leaving school and me going on to college (few years) Real reason was I was living with abuse asf parents and I was at the lowest point of my life. Probably was around 16/17 I just said medical issues I don't see how it's relevant at all though. What do you say about that when they ask you?

Take the pay cut and higher benefit cost for new job?

How many of you have taken a pay cut for better mental health?? I have a job offer at a place that’s in state (Indiana) and is closer to my house. They wanted me to give me 53k but I got them up to 55k. I currently make 58k at my job. Let me start where I don’t like my current job. For starters, the commute fucking sucks. I drive 70 miles (40-45 min commute) round trip everyday to Illinois from my house in Indiana(I fill up my car once a week, costs $50 at current gas prices). I fucking hate my boomer coworker. She’s a fucking A-type personality that if I file something wrong, she flies off the handle. She questions everyone’s every little step. I have to walk on eggshells around her. I have social anxiety to begin with and have made a couple HR complaints after her…

Fuck teaching, fuck covid, fuck work

I'm sorry in advance, I'm on mobile, I'm ill as fuck and I need to rant so please excuse any mistakes! That being said, I'm an ESL teacher (English as second language) in South East Asia, so I really shouldn't have any excuse. Back in October 2020 I moved out here to teach in public schools. The company I worked for was pretty dodgy and were definitely under paying us, so mid April 2021 I got a second job at a private English centre (better pay, smaller classes, higher level, it was a no-brainer really), with the plan to quit the first one at the end of the academic year. This second job has a pay period from the 24th-23rd of each month, so my first pay was only for a week of work. In mid-May the fucking 'rona decided to come back with a vengeance so we had to…

Boss messed up my late start so I’m thinking day off?

As usual in office environments, someone came in with a cold last week and boom it hit me on Friday. I did have social plans on Saturday but we’re cut short bc of being so crappy. But because of this I’d already asked for my shift to start later so I could get ready for work and not rush being ill and sleepy. But the work app has alerted me this morning that my shift started as usual, and I’m here thinking. Day off? I’m a snotty mucus ball of hate right now anyway, and I know it’s going to mess my probation up if I don’t come in. But what’s more important my health or my job? My team are severely understaffed as it is so I would be very surprised if I get fired for it but I’m trying to find any motivation to go in. Any tips…
