Good morning lovely people of r/antiwork, Today I am working with a kidney infection, on a holiday, because I work in healthcare. Every other major office or hospital system is shut, but not us. We stay open for everything. My soon to be fiancé is dead asleep because he has a Union. Last week, he only worked 3 days because he’s allowed to take off whenever he wants with no penalty! Amazing to me, as someone who has to work with a kidney infection, in order to take our vacation to Italy this fall, as we do not get sick days. A vacation staffing is still arguing with me about, because how dare I take 2 consecutive weeks off, even though it’s allowed per the employee manual. No worries, next spring I graduate and will be leaving the national embarrassment that is healthcare. My company still thinks I’m going to…
But we’ve done so much for you

Thank God it’s Monday…
I have applied to literally hundreds of tech writing and staff writing jobs since I graduated with my BA in May. I have seen precisely zero advertised as entry level positions. All of them required 2-5 years of experience. The generations before us have pulled up the ladder behind them and it is nakedly visible in this situation. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm working a night shift maintenance position right now and I feel like there is no way into a white color position for me. I am trapped working meathead jobs until I die.
They always ask why you're leaving the job you have. Also in the interview they'll ask why you left a job, or why you're leaving your current job. I'm leaving because it's crappy management with low pay and I get disrespected by coworkers constantly. I don't want a potential future employer to think that I'm nitpicking or just a crybaby. I'm a really hard worker but I just don't want to work here anymore. Any advice on that issue?
