*sees a promising job with a 3 page application that demands references up front*
You know, I might bother to fill this out if I thought I would get a call back but they won't call me back so why waste the time?

least favorite recurring nightmare this semester is the one where i'm once again a freelance piano teacher and i realize that i've missed weeks of lessons without explanation to the students/parents.
#i was definitely materially more precarious as a freelance teacher#like i was not making a living wage#i was living with my parents#and my income was entirely dependent on not having last-minute cancellations from parents or car troubles#i think probably the fear is that i'm going to have to do that again#all these stupid job and postdoc applications#someone please just hire me#job search woes

Have you played Kid Icarus Uprising? I feel like you would like it
I haven't played it O: And I am waaaaay too poor to buy it at this point in time. (I googled pricing) So it's very unlikely I will ever get to play it since as time passes it will only get to be MORE expensive.
#moe talks a lot#not art#the woes of being unemployed and needing money to go to rent and bills and not games ...#i rly need a job at some point soon but searching is getting overwhelming#i can allow myself cheaper games or free games (gacha count cause you dont HAVE to spend money so I dont)#but i cannot justify a game that expensive rn even if i was curious about it in the past n forgot about it#sorry anon...

Failed to mask how stressed I am at work in the morning check-in and our department head said I should let her know when I "want a break" and apparently I completely lost my mind because I said "oh, three days ago would have been great." So she says. She says that next week maybe I could "take an hour or two" by which I think she meant cut my day short "an hour or two"?
Firstly, next week -should- be pretty calm compared to the last few weeks, I won't need to ~take an hour~, the workload will just be more manageable, but more importantly, on what fucking planet is having a day or two shorter by /an hour/ enough of a fucking break after multiple weeks of bullshit.
An hour. Honestly.
----
And the worst of it isn't so much that there's too much work as such, it's the people. The usual vague instructions I'm supposed to magically intuit correctly, along with last minute instructions that should have come much earlier in the process, along with even more last minute provision of vital quantities of stuff that only they can write.
#work bullshit#angst and woe#don't ask me how the job search is going it's the usual catch-22#i don't have the energy to do the things i need to do to get to somewhere that isn't such a fucking drain

i hate writing cover letters i loathe it with my entire being it feels like i'm self combusting everytime i try to write one, it is absolute torture
i would rather write about literally anything else, anything else in the world. i just can't sell myself ,i can't talk about my good points because i feel like i have none. it's awkward tryin to start off writing a generic template for one because i have no genuine motivation or interest in an imaginary job, and even if i did how do i get that across in a professional way

learning that i am actually a couple years older than most of my mutuals by watching my dash overnight transition from posts about the misery of being in college -> posts about the misery of finding a career and apartment hunting
#like yeah. welcome to the club i don't know if or when it will get better.#avpost#didn't relate when you guys were complaining about online school but sadly i do relate to job/housing search woes#at the very least i can confirm that no matter how much it sucks to go through you WILL start to be less miserable#just by virtue of aging and also getting sick of your own issues#just like give it a year or two and try to find a hobby or activity to be an active participant in#doesnt have to be creative or productive just something that takes up time that you can put some level of thought into

Let’s look for a job again today, in my discipline of Writing with experience in
Training, Sales, Marketing, Business to Business, and Business to Clients.
Let’s go to the Ol’ Reliable, LInkedin!
First article on the home page...
Hmm, but there is a fun picture maybe its okay.
Surely it’s just going to be a tool that will further allow the refinement of writing and accelerate the process for these younger writers to get more experience with the complex writing.
Oh... No? No it won’t? But surely there must be a reason for this?
No reason? No consideration for how high Level writing will get practiced new writers to do produce that? No consideration of the value of time for someone else to use their time to use these AI’s to run their marketing campaigns?
Sure it will be cheaper, and sure it will be faster for all the basic. Where will those writers be when your AI cannot produce the higher end writing wanted and needed. The confidence of which is is asserted only to be ended with the LInkedIn equivilent of someone venting to their friends seriously then ending with a, “lol idk”
And the big kicker is this is all a long form sales-pitch for his mentorship program.
What a long winded discouraging read for anyone who writes and all for the sake of a self-congratulating program sales pitch.
Anyways... let me click over to the Job Section, and see what Director Level Positions with 8-12 years of experience will be listed in the Entry-Level and Associate section since I’m changing fields and have to start back at the bottom again with my decade of transferable skills and education.
