Venting Disappointed again

[hoppybunny]

Literally applied to a job and this is the fourth job in 10 months that has given me an interview. 800 applications 200+ rejections. And just silence from every other job.

Stupid me assumed that an interview basically guaranteed the job. And i thought i did really well too.

I was planning my future with the job and my independence like a fucking fool and just received the rejection thid morning.

I really think God/The universe must be laughing at me.

I don't know anymore what's wrong with me. I'm nkt even asking for much. I just want 45k a year to move out. It's not a big salary at all. Is it a crime for me to want an office job that matches my fucking degree instead of destroying my body in a retail/warehouse/fast food job.

This fucking sucks. I feel so useless.

If you have accumulated a lot of anger and frustration and bring that with you on a job interview, it can scare people off.

When I interviewed people for a job, I would see what questions they asked as an indicator of their interest in the work we had. Questions about how often there were breaks or how much vacation time there was showed me what their priorities were.

I'm so sorry. This is happening to so many. The world is cruel. I've seen the transformation during my career. Mergers have been very destructive to the job market. Then outsourcing. Automation and AI. Private equity has been the worst. People say they hate capitalism but this isn't capitalism anymore. It feels like a tipping point

It sucks so bad. But unfortunately this is how capitalism works. The point is to secure as much capital as possible.

There are other forms of sustainable commerce ofc.

The issue is mainly treating corporations like ppl and having no protections for workers.

Like do u know corporations can vote in municipal elections here in the us now?!?@?
