Re: Complain about your workplace here!

(Anonymous) 2013-11-08 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Sort of a half workplace rant, half looking for job rant.

So a position opened up at my dream company for a job I was completely qualified for. This hasn't happened since I started looking there, so I quickly scraped together what was necessary to apply and sent it in. Then a friend of mine who has a good bit of pull at the company gave me a recommendation completely of their own accord (I felt bad asking for it so I didn't). Dream job, dream company, dream chance.

It's been two weeks.

Before anyone asks, this isn't the type of job where I can call and pester. It's a very large international company and if my phone call even makes it past the receptionist, it'll end up in voice mail wasteland.

I tried so hard to not get my hopes up, but here I am, hopes dashed. I've pretty much given up on ever getting a job there, even though the company has been a major part of shaping me into who I am today. I just wanted to give back, you know?

I know I should keep hoping and keep trying, but I am so completely and utterly miserable at my current job that I can barely muster enough energy to get out of bed in the morning. I've broken down crying on Sunday evenings. The environment is so completely toxic but there's something about me and my work and my resume that's keeping people from even giving me one call back. And believe me, I've tried.

Yes, yes, unemployment's high and I should be thankful and all that. And I am. I just wish it wasn't killing me slowly too.
