Extremely tired of finding employment
So tired of recruitment companies underselling me, companies offering under pay for over qualifications, contract work, etc. Was sold the idea that if you just major in engineering you’ll be set, people will be bending over backwards to hire you, yeah maybe 30 years ago. As a mechanical engineer with 4 years experience and a masters degree I am so tired of trying to get a job in my dream location (Boulder Colorado) to start a life with the woman I plan to marry and start a life with. She started doing research there, extremely underpaid for being a post doc, and I’m desperately trying to find employment there so I can find some happiness in this bullshit. So tired of recruitment agencies offering me shit pay with no benefits so I can “prove myself”, I’ve been doing that for the past 10 years. So tired of talking to predators who are offering me shit pay so they can scrape as much off the top as possible, I have my qualifications, I have my recommendations, fucking train me for the rest. Fuck this man I’m so tired of everything, don’t know if I’ll ever be able to start a life and settle down when my father did that shit at 21 with a minimum wage job at 21 and I’m 30 and thinking about how I made all the “right choices” and can’t ever imagine owning a home or having children. Fuck it all my Im done.
Sorry for the rant just thought this might be the right place to do it. For extra info im surviving where I am and employed with an engineering position, recruitment company gets payed 65/hr while I get 40 with no benefits fucking leaches, at the moment.
