So, I messed up and got myself into a job that I really don't like. I feel like expectations are way too high for me based on my experience level, and my manager is extremely condescending/passive aggressive and sometimes openly rude (calling certain work "terrible"). She seems to have a problem with me even though all I've been is respectful to her and act like I don't notice it. I've been working here for a few months and this past week has been the last straw for me, I want to start applying for other jobs. I definitely don't want to include this job in my resume though, it won't look grea ..read more

Applied to a huge tech company, and read over my cover letter so many times, only to find one error at the very end of my letter. I’m totally crushed and unable to resubmit. Does this mess up my chances of ever hearing back? submitted by /u/Enough_Bad_3945 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi. Why does it seem that in order to keep your job in the US, you have to give up your entire life to your employer? I have worked in the US for many employers and found that in order to avoid being fired or laid off you need to give up your entire life to them. I find myself being afraid to do personal things before or after my shift due to fear of being let go for doing my own things. The complete lack of job security is causing great stress in my life. submitted by /u/PurpleKnight1 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Why do they seem so common now? In the past week, I’ve had 3 of them call me to set up and “interview”. As someone who’s been job searching for 4 months now, it feels kind of cruel. submitted by /u/TheHarlieQ [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I work at a company that ties together a lot of things I really like and once studied. (Healthcare, design, and tech). My role is something like a database programmer though and the data is just related to the former two. Pros of the job that are making me stay: - Private company stock averaging 15-25% yields each year. It's not a bonus but just purchasable with my 401k money - Dream-ish industry - Prestigious and well known in my city Cons: - Consulting so everything is "needed" asap - People kind of suck. The huge drawback for me. My team barely speaks to me unless they need something. If t ..read more

So I graduated high school, went to uni for a year and a half, had a mental health scare and a car literally swerve into my apartment wall so I dipped. Now I'm at home with my family. My parents desperately want me to get a job, but I've applied to dozens of places and none of them will even give me a email or call back. The only place that has even interviewed me was In-N-Out and they declined me even though I worked at CFA for like 4 years. My parents only response to me has been "I need to get a f**king job and live life". I don't know what to do. I've driven up in person and asked for pos ..read more

Is there anything i can do about this? I've worked every day as hard as i can, never slacked, just put in my 2 weeks because the manager was so toxic, but i've still given my all and shown up every day, and remained kind to everyone. Out of nowhere, on my last day coming in, i get told "oh yeah you were fired, she didnt say why." by my coworker. I know exactly why, she didn't want me rehirable. I cannot accept this outcome laying down, so, does anyone know where i can even start fighting this? Should i start with HR? Or just try a lawyer? submitted by /u/Fickle-Courage7635 [visit reddit] [co ..read more

I’m a 25 year old guy. Quiet, awkward, and I keep to myself. I get picked on a lot at work by the other guys because of the way I respond to stuff and the way I’m awkward. I constantly get invited to strip clubs and constantly get asked if I have a girlfriend, and when I say no, they ask why I don’t. I thought of lying and saying I was gay so they’d fuck off and leave me alone. I also get made fun of for using the restroom frequently sometimes, even though I’ve got stomach issues and it’s not my fault. Apparently there’s even a rumor that I tend to disappear at work. Even though my numbers ar ..read more

So i had my last (3rd) interview with a big corporate last week and during the interview they told me that i should expect an update last week. But it was over a week so i emailed the recruiter but they didn’t got back to me and then i emailed after 3 days again (1st screenshot) and the reply they gave me (2nd screenshot) indirectly implies a rejection. I was really interested in this opportunity and i spend 3 days to complete a take home assessment but after this unprofessional email from the recruiter that shows no interest, i am a bit disappointed and do not think i would like to work ..read more
