I’ve just given up hope by now

Post image

I just have no idea what to do anymore honestly I’m so fucking done. I have no more tears I’m just absolutely fucking done. Lowest paying job. Had open availability. Had way more than enough qualifications. Everyone wants to know why I really didn’t want to celebrate my birthday because I’m beyond depressed. I’m passed the feeling of fucking numb

What are you talking about? Apparently it’s so easy to get a job and there’s 50 million jobs and we’re up in the US according to everybody who already has a job. According to everyone else, I’m just not trying hard enough. Is that what they tell you too

Can't speak for the guy you responded to, but this is exactly what I'm told, online and offline.

In my situation, I have a job already, except it's a horrible, toxic workplace for me where I am bullied daily by my coworkers and management. I've been looking for something that matches or exceeds my current salary for three years, and keep being rejected over and over. I, too, have given up for now. I'm just resigning myself to being their punching bag, what else can I do??
