I can't get it right

Submitted by whattda on Sun, 04/20/2008 - 22:40.

I give up. About six months ago, I gave up my job of over 7 or so years due to people, politics, poor management, etc. etc. only to accept a new positon that turned out to be the darker trenches of hell. The job was horrible and the people there called themselves "Good Chrisitans" all the while smiling in my face while putting a knife in my back at every opportunity. Low lifes.


Is this salary a joke?

Submitted by whattda on Sat, 03/24/2007 - 22:00.

Can anybody tell me what is up with all these lousy companies offering starting salaries of $10.00 - $12.00 an hour??? What the hell is that?? Do they not realize it's 2007 its impossible to live on that. No wonder I've been trapped in hell so many years. AARRGGHHH


want to get out

Submitted by whattda on Sat, 01/20/2007 - 22:29.

I just posted my resume on three online job search sites. Has anybody ever found a job on these sites or are they a playground for recruters? I've had no luck on my own, anyway. I need to get out of where I am. The years went by and I never got anywhere. Things went from bad to worse then the worse got even worser. (Not a word, I know, but its the truth). I try to be optimistic but my optimism had faded. I'm getting depressed now. Favoritism has no place in the workplace. It hurts good people.


back to work

Submitted by whattda on Mon, 01/01/2007 - 20:17.

OH,know. As it gets later and later on this New Years day, thoughts of going back to work tomorrow are creeping into my head and upsetting me,I feel the stress coming on. The first day of a brand new year and i'm still giving them the power to destroy me...I have to stop this!

Has anybody ever wanted to leave their job because of a complete and total slacker, who is treated by her so called manager like a queen, although she is nothing but a dumb ass charity case who is worthless, slow and a complete and total piece of shit? I am going to my boss one more time about this bitch. last time he swore oh, she's going to be responsible for this and that but I think her bitch boss protected her ass. Fuckin charity case....she is in her late 50's, you would swear she's going on 80, and I mean an 80 year old on life support. She does nothing but watch me work while she makes more money than me.


Another interview....

Submitted by whattda on Mon, 10/23/2006 - 22:33.

I had another interview today. The company was near were I'm currently working (suffering) and I was able to schedule the interview during my lunch hour. I thought that was promising. So anyway, I reached the building and proceeded to walk into an empty lobby, with the exception of one table that had a black rotary phone sitting on top of it. hummm.
As I stood there staring at the twilight zone phone, a girl walked down the stairs and came into the lobby and said "May I help you?" I said "I have an interview with Mrs. Miller" she said, "Mrs. Miller? There's no Mrs. Miller here". ookaaay. She walked over to the antique phone and picked it up and said to someone, "Somebody is here, she says she has an interview with Mrs. Miller?? OOOOO, I see. Oh, okay". She hung up the phone and proceeded to tell me "she'll be right down". Then walked outside for a cigarette. I was rather frightened when a few minutes later the elevator doors suddenly opened and out came very slowly a woman of about 100 years old. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating just a little bit but she was old! Like the phone! I went upstairs for the interview and much to my surprise, the second floor was much more up to date with real offices, real phones, real people. Even the very old lady was actually very nice and it wasn't a bad interview. Things were looking up, I thought. She explained the job to me, customer service, taking orders, order entry, the ususal. Sounded much better than the BS I am currently doing. I was getting a little happy until she told me the pay was 8.75 an hour.


Oh give me a break!!!

Wonderful. Just wonderful. I just got a rejection letter in my email for a job I was never called to interview for! What next, people, what next!


job search bluuues

Submitted by whattda on Fri, 10/20/2006 - 16:37.

Okay I'm getting even more aggravated. I swear looking for a new job is worse than suffering every day at a job I hate. I went to another interview this morning, and all I got at the end of the interview was "I have a few more interviews next week, I don't know how long it will take before I make a decision". Oh, I'll send them a thank you letter anyway. Sigh. I went to an interview last week and I was told bascially the same thing, I never heard from them yet. I'm getting tired of following up with these places.
When they have you fill out those stupid applications, they ask if they could contact your current employer.


to hell with it

Submitted by whattda on Tue, 10/17/2006 - 00:16.

Oh after the rotten lousy ass day I had at that screwed up dipshitted place I dont care who supports me or not i'm getting the hell out of there. Stupid nosy rude pushy loseresque people. I'm out of there as soon as possible. I'm only one person I can't do everything. If i was able to walk off that crap shit hole of a job I would have done it today. AAARRGGHH


Why its it so hard to move on

Submitted by whattda on Mon, 10/16/2006 - 00:50.

I've hated my job for a long time. I've carried the workload while lazy people sit back and do nothing but say "I don't know I don't know". I make less money than everyone else. New hires come in making more than me. Everyone is on my back constantly for everything, its neverending BS. I've gone to interviews at other places and made excuses to myself why I should stay put. For the most part, I've stayed put because other places won't even match what I make in the looney bin. I've been grinning and bearing that place for years. Why then, when I finally get an interview set up at another company for a job that actually pays more money, a job that I'm actually excited about why, why why to people put me down?


Revelation

Submitted by whattda on Sat, 05/06/2006 - 13:16.

For the past two months or so I had been looking for another job. Tons of resumes sent out with no response, some interviews that led to nothing...additional stress I just don't need. The last three calls I had for interviews, I didn't bother to call back. I have hung up my resume, so to speak. I've come to the revelation that its really not my job I hate, Its the people that drive me insane. Crazy lazy people that take no initiative and constantly get away with it. What I am afraid of is, what happens if I take another job, say I have to drive further, or work later, what happens if I find myself surrounded by lazy lame heads again??? I wouldn't be able to cope with it.


one thing to say

Submitted by whattda on Wed, 02/22/2006 - 21:59.

I have one thing to say everybody and thats FUCK THIS JOB. I am going to stop being so particular and start sending the resume out!


Large office or small?

Submitted by whattda on Sun, 02/12/2006 - 21:46.

I work in a very large office of about 200 people. While there are some decent, hard working people there I am in the unfortunate position of being an office support person. Now, I don't mind doing this kind of work at all. The thing is, most of the other clerical staff, they just don't seem very brigt. More and more I have begun to learn they were hired because of who they know in the company, or, and I hate to say this, to meet a "quota" of diverse characters. I worked hard in night school, okay, I have an associates in liberal arts, and I may help the "quota" by being an older female (not that old but older!) but at least I have a brain to use.


Frustration overload

Submitted by whattda on Mon, 02/06/2006 - 22:53.

I've had it! I'm all frustrated and wound up from work today. I'm smoking more damn cigarettes than ever and my mind is racing. I have so much work piled up, I have to run around the office accomodating all the stupid dumbasses who need help with something, and for christs sake, we're out of paper. Am I the only person capable of ordering paper??? NO! I'm tired of running in circles getting stressed, while certain other people sit on their asses looking busy. I've told the stupid and the lazy I need help, and I told my boss. Like talking to the walls. I need a vacation, I need a new job


sunday again

I keep going through the same job postings over and over again, hoping something I can apply for will magically appear. How depressing. Did I ever mention I hate sunday evening? Another week of aggravation coming up. Do any of you out there find yourself constantly online or looking in the newspaper want ads over and over again at the same jobs?
