How can a 32(M) who has 5 years of teaching experience, 10 years of sales experience, a bachelors, a masters, several certifications and a comprehensive work history not find a suitable job?
Seriously though, I'm having to start all over because teaching f**ked me. If you are wanting to become an educator in this country in any aspect, DON'T! Our economy does not cater to it and you are literally ALWAYS on the bottom of the sh*t totem pole. Have a job? Well, consider it temporary, especially in Nebraska which by definition is a “Employment at Will” state. Like what in the actual F**k is that?? So I have a job for 6 months and as soon as you use me for all the work I have done for your company, you just lay me off?
It's been like this for three jobs in a row now and at this point I'm so fed up. Currently, I'm in the process of trying to obtain my EMT so I can get out of this shit show and apply to become a firefighter, receive a union based job and have some sort of stability. Yet, in this transition where I'm trying to maintain any type of position I can that BARELY gets me by (24/hr), I can't support my now fiance with bills around the house, of f**king wedding and make any payments towards my shit loans that have piled up over the years.
Like what am I supposed to do, I probably spend half of my workday (i work for some crappy paying position that is manual labor) where I'm secretly applying to positions on LinkedIn that can pay the minimum. But of course they probably have some shitty Talent Acquisition team full of free loading a**holes who are probably in their 20's making decisions on candidates whom they “f**king like”. If you are buddies with someone or have some sort of good word from either kissing someones a** to get to the top, I feel as though you're sh*t out of luck.
Furthermore, how do people who are in higher level management companies even have the positions they do? The manager I work for right now, I swear, cannot figure out the most basic priorities that the company needs, and he's getting paid a salaried position that probably pays 3x as much as me!!
